He is on course for a resounding victory over far-right José Antonio Kast with more than half of the vote counted pic.twitter.com/pFYnzjD9Xx
I was having a walk this evening long before I thought results would come in. People poured out into Plaza Nunoa, ground zero of Gabriel Boric supporters, in a matter of minutes. By 7pm the Plaza was packed. Old, young, holding flags and banners. Cars honking. Festive. pic.twitter.com/0JUhyZ35lr
