Electoral divisions of Chile
This article covers the electoral division of Chile, which involves two distinct systems:
The article includes lists of the various electoral structures and divisions in Chile.
The Chamber of Deputies consists of 155 members across 28 electoral districts (distrito electoral), each electing between 3 and 8 deputies. These districts were created in 2015 by merging the previous 60 into larger ones.
Between 1990 and 2018, there were 60 electoral districts, each electing two deputies. The districts were composed of groups of communes.
Notes: "VAP" is voting age population (population 18 and above on 13 December 2009); "Valid votes" is equal to "Total votes" minus null votes and blank votes; "T" are total votes; "E" is enrolled population; "V" are valid votes. The voting results are for the 13 December 2009 Chamber of Deputies election.
The Senate consists of 50 members, with each region forming a senatorial constituency (circunscripción senatorial). Each constituency elects between 2 and 5 senators.
Before 2018, there were 19 senatorial constituencies. Each region constituted a senatorial constituency, except for the Valparaíso, Santiago, Maule, Biobío, and La Araucanía regions, which were each divided into two senatorial constituencies. Each senatorial constituency elected two senators. Constituencies that did not correspond to full regions were made up of several electoral districts within a region.
In 2009, the Constitution was amended to ensure that each region constituted at least one senatorial constituency. Before the law defining senatorial constituencies was updated to reflect this change, the list was as follows:
