That isn't even close. If this ends up being the margin, how much did Left turnout drop? Perhaps the NM-BF split truly did put off BF voters from Guillier...

It would have dropped by a LOT if that was the result, but then again, Piñera probably drew new voters as well, or voters who didn't vote in the first round to punish him or because they thought he was going to win anyway.

Go Piñera! We can win this!

This is painful to watch, specially Piñera doing good in popular communes.

Little surprised by this. I guess you can never overestimate the capability of the left to eat their own.

Seems clear to me those who claimed Bachelet's reforms had turned popular made that call a bit too early...

Guillier is doing reasonably well in Santiago where if that were the trend it would be neck-to-neck.  He has to hope that is a trend and that other results have a Piñera lean to them ..

Some quick backhand math says the vote might have dropped by 300K between the two rounds - though not all counts have the same number of voters so this is VERY ROUGH.

Tvn just showed of the vote regionally - Piñera is largely doing better then one would expect in the north. The map seems to largely map the traditional polarization - extreme south and north-central for Left, Far north and South for Right - Except Piñera is barely winning the traditional Left-wing Mining states in the north.

Who knows. Pinera was also quite unpopular when he left office and now he's back. Maybe Bachelet and Pinera are doomed to fight and succeed each other forever

Looks like the number of voters increased from the first round.  So it does not seems like marginal Sánchez not voting that gave  Piñera the victory.  It seems it is more about defections from Goic first round voters.    And even that does not seem to be enough to explain this large Piñera victory.  I guess there must have been defections from Sánchez and even perhaps Enríquez-Ominami first round voters, as hard it is to believe plus some marginal non-voters in the first round coming out to stop Guillier.

Yeah, my backhand calculations were way off - not all counts created equal and all that. There are only two explanations. One you offered above, that the centrists and some marginal leftists decided cast Piñera votes. This is obviously part of the story.

However, I think the main reason was that in the first round Piñera didn't really mobilize his base effectively.  Right-wing voters didn't turn up in the numbers they needed in the first round since it was obvious Piñera was going to win. When the results came in, and the election became close, this base became scared - and they turned out. So there was probably a few left-wing voters dropping off, however their votes are hidden because Piñera mobilized the right and outpreformed his first round turnout.

After the elections earlier in the year in Ecuador where the left consolidated around their candidate to stop the right in the second round, I just expected that would be the norm and would occur again. It's probably unfair though to compare the outgoing administration of Correa who was reasonably popular to Bachelet who was anything but.

Nah, it was more like Guilliar started with the better hand, so people expected him to do better. The moment votes came in from Chile, everyone knew it was over.
