El sufragio voluntario del artículo 15 de la constitución política de chile

The paper denies that art. 15 of the chilean Constitution establishes a right not to vote. What is instead protectected by this article is the citizen's electoral decision-making process. Under this perspective are considered several statements from chilean electoral system. Since a constitutional right not to vote is not included in it, any new legal statement that establishes compulsory voting would involve no transgression to art. 15 of the Constitution.
