In the same week that 5G technology was launched, the candidate of the left-wing Apruebo Dignidad bloc, Gabriel Boric, won the ballot by a large majority, with almost 56% of the votes. On the same day of the elections, a controversy was raised with the Minister of Transport and Telecommunications, Gloria Hutt, although it was not related to her management in telecommunications, but due to the lack of public transport that complicated the transfer in communes of middle and popular sectors from Santiago. There were suspicions, while in the Metropolitan region the majority vote in favor of the Frente Amplio deputy is concentrated, while the government coalition gave its support to the right-wing candidate José Antonio Kast. The minister denied at first that there was less transportation, although she later acknowledged that there was a noticeable decrease. She did not accept, however, that it was a government strategy.
