520 |a Research Question: What explains support for radical-right candidates and to what extent are votersʼ gender, income and religion good predictors of that support? Context: This article answers such questions using the case of Chile, specifically the 2021 presidential election, in which a candidate from the radical right, José Antonio Kast, reached the electionʼs second round. Method: Based on opinion polls and electoral data aggregated at the municipality level, a series of multivariate statistical models was developed to explain the vote for Kast. Conclusions: The following three findings were obtained. First, there was a significant gender gap, with greater support from men than women. Second, this gender gap is highly dependent on the socioeconomic conditions of voters, with the support of men from higher-income segments of the population being more favourable to the radical right. The third is the radical rightʼs robust backing from the evangelical population.
