Allende Suffers Election Setback in Chile
President Salvador Allende faced a surprising defeat in two special congressional elections in Chile. Rafael Moreno won the Senate seat in Colchagua and O’Higgins provinces, while Sergio Diez defeated Maria Eliana Mery for a Linares deputy seat. Neither result shifts Congress balance. Allende called the elections extraordinarily important and campaigns highlighted opposition and leftist figures.
