It consists of the communes of La Granja, Macul, Ñuñoa, Providencia, San Joaquín and Santiago in the region of Santiago. The district currently elects eight of the 155 members of the Chamber of Deputies using the open party-list proportional representation electoral system.

Electoral system

[edit]

District 10 currently elects eight of the 155 members of the Chamber of Deputies using the open party-list proportional representation electoral system.[4][5] Parties may form electoral pacts with each other to pool their votes and increase their chances of winning seats.[6][7] However, the number of candidates nominated by an electoral pact may not exceed the maximum number of candidates that a single party may nominate. Seats are allocated using the D'Hondt method.[8][9]
