The contributions of the presidential second round

A week after the formal start of the electoral campaign period for the presidential runoff, the Electoral Service (Servel) updated the register of contributions for the campaigns of Gabriel Boric and José Antonio Kast. This information showed that both letters to La Moneda support their figures mostly with mandated credits. Unlike the first round, in what has been contributed during these days there are not many names of great businessmen or millionaire collaborations.
In the case of Boric, he has so far in his contributions the sum of $ 939,796,612, of which $ 850 million correspond to a credit with a mandate. In the contributions without advertising – that is, without the name of the contributor – it adds up to just over $30 million.
The highest donation he received is $1,500,000 from Blas Troncoso Montégu, lawyer, prosecutor of Socovesa companies -in the real estate sector-, vice president of the Emprender Educational Corporation. Communist deputy Daniel Núñez added $1 million to the contributions, the same amount as Samuel Jerardino Etcheverry and Luis Felipe Mujica Toro.
The resources that Boric has for the runoff, in these days of campaign, almost double those of Kast. The leader of the Republican Party has a total of $ 471,700,035, of which $ 450 million are from a mandated loan. Non-advertising contributions reach just over $12 million.
Kast’s largest contribution is $1,500,000, made by Inelia Campos, a medical technologist. The second highest is $500,000, made by Juan Enrique Concha Ureta, of Viveros Requínoa, national counselor of the National Society of Agriculture, son of agricultural entrepreneur Alfredo Concha Yrarrázabal.
