This article seeks to understand the complexities of electoral competition for political power in Chile in the early institutionalization. Fraud, especially bribery, and the ministerial rotations during the so-called Parliamentary Republic (1891-1925) have been recurrent arguments of the historiography to prove the political crisis of the period. This article changes the focus on parliamentarism and this type of fraud, and attempts to show that, among the various campaign strategies, the manipulation of electoral registrations was the most competitive practice of negotiation between localities and party authorities in Santiago. The preelectoral fraud conducted by local elites organized around municipalities led to a political crisis in 1914, the only way out of which was to depoliticize the electoral power. This first way of doing this was to give responsibility of the preparation of the electoral records to an institution that was independent from both the parties and the other powers of the state. This explains why the Governing Junta of 1924 created the Electoral Registration. |
