Chilean Center-Left Presidential Hopeful Carolina Toha Gains in Polls
(Bloomberg) -- Chilean center-left presidential hopeful Carolina Toha rose in two polls conducted immediately after her formal announcement last week that she'll compete in this year's election.

She trailed center-right candidate Evelyn Matthei, who garnered 25%, and hard-right contenders Johannes Kaiser and Jose Antonio Kast, who obtained 16% and 13%, respectively. Meanwhile, a separate survey by Cadem showed Toha with 10% of voter intentions, up from 3% in February. That poll showed Matthei leading with 18%, followed by Kaiser with 13% and Kast with 11%. Matthei would win a hypothetical run-off against all three, according to Cadem. Toha is a lifelong politician who served as interior minister until March 4, and she's viewed by many as the center-left's strongest candidate in the upcoming contest. Going forward, Toha will undoubtedly seek to lure supporters of former President Michelle Bachelet, a progressive who said last week that she won't seek a third term. Still, Toha has faced a backlash from Chileans who are concerned about crime and also worries about her appeal with voters. The first-round vote will be on Nov. 16 and a run-off, if needed, would take place on Dec. 14. Local laws forbid consecutive terms for any head of state, meaning current President Gabriel Boric won't be able to seek reelection. The Panel Ciudadano UDD poll surveyed 1,084 people March 5-6. It has a margin of error of plus or minus three percentage points. The Cadem poll surveyed 702 people March 5-7. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.7 percentage points.
