After twenty years in opposition, the right came to power in 2009 with Sebastian Pinera. What would be a new political era for Chile, ended only in a parenthesis.

This article identifies the causes of the election result according to the combined effect of three conditions. First, the low popularity of the government and the low transfer popularity to presidential candidate (Evelyn Matthei). Second, the electoral split the ruling by the candidacy of independent Franco Parisi. Third, the decline in voter turnout in voluntary voting.
