Chileans appear to be
suffering buyer's remorse;
The latest public-opinion poll released on Monday, June 1, by the consulting firm Cadem
demonstrates the president’s [Michelle Bachelet's] popularity has dwindled to just 26
percent. The results represent a stark contrast to Bachelet’s approval
rating of 52 percent when she took office in March 2014, then peaking at
56 percent a few months later.
Her son and daughter-in-law's financial dealings being a large part of it;
Bachelet’s popularity suffered its worst hit after Chilean prosecutors filed criminal charges against her son, Sebastián Dávalos, and his wife Natalia Campagnon, for influence peddling and improper use of privileged information.
But the poor performance of the Chilean economy under the socialist ideologue surely is the bigger factor.
