# SERVEL records 61.87 percent Rechazo of the Convention constitution Boric championed

Date: 2022

## The fact

On 4 September 2022 Chile voted under compulsory turnout on the Constitutional Convention’s proposed text. SERVEL recorded Rechazo 61.87 percent (7,886,434) against Apruebo 38.13 percent (4,860,266). President Boric had campaigned for Apruebo. That night he accepted the result.

## Context

He had taken the oath on 11 March 2022. The Convention sat as a 2021-elected body. Neighbouring 6 September cabinet shuffle is a child. He did not sit as a SERVEL teller.

2020 entry plebiscite was under [Piñera](/people/sebastian-pinera). 17 December 2023 is a later child. Keep SERVEL records 61.87 percent Rechazo of the Convention constitution Boric championed on 2022-09-04 separate from neighbouring 4 September 2022 Rechazo, Ley 21.560, 17 December 2023 En contra, Ley 21.735, and the 11 March 2026 handover.

The president of Chile is head of state and head of government. He can promulgate statutes Congress sends and order border patrols. He does not sit as a SERVEL teller, a Constitutional Convention drafter, a Carabinero at a checkpoint, or a Peruvian border clerk.

## Evidence and sources

Servicio Electoral de Chile carries the official instrument or communique. The Washington Post records the same dated act independently.

## Significance

The path is [boric](/people/gabriel-boric)-constitutional-security: a completed rejection of the text his coalition championed.

## What is established and what is not

Established: SERVEL recorded Rechazo at about 62 percent on 4 September 2022; he accepted the result.

Not established: A unique later homicide or GDP coefficient from that Sunday, or that the 2020 entry vote is his Contribution.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, a later repeal, a court that vacated the instrument, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.

He campaigned for Apruebo as president. The Convention drafted. Voters rejected.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies SERVEL records 61.87 percent Rechazo of the Convention constitution Boric championed, not a later speech about SERVEL records 61.87 percent Rechazo of the Convention constitution Boric championed.

Co-authors and later implementers named in Context remain on the file. SERVEL records 61.87 percent Rechazo of the Convention constitution Boric championed on 2022-09-04 is not a licence to treat every later Servicio Electoral de Chile communique as this same act. If a later repeal, stay, or successor instrument exists, it needs its own date and its own row. This dossier refuses to average SERVEL records 61.87 percent Rechazo of the Convention constitution Boric championed into a personality. The contribution described on this Person row is limited to SERVEL counted. He campaigned for Apruebo as president. The Convention drafted. Voters rejected. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series.
