In chile: Polls close on overhaul of dictatorship-era constitution

Description

The polls have closed and workers swiftly count votes in Chile. The ballots are to determine whether to adopt a new constitution that would break from the era of Augusto Pinochet's dictatorship, foster a more welfare-based society and boost Indigenous rights. If voted for, the new constitution will overhaul Chile's government, replacing the Senate with a less powerful "chamber of regions," and require women to hold at least half of positions in public institutions.
