Along these lines, he explained that the Team Patriota organization formally requested in writing, through a presentation entered by the Parties Office dated May 17, 2022, a hearing with Tagle.

Tagle stated that “the statement based on false news spread on social networks, consisting in the fact that the Servel would have allowed irregularities in the process of re-signing political parties carried out in 2016 and 2017, was categorically refuted.”
“The statement of alleged irregularities by the Adexus company in the preliminary results delivered by the Servel, on the occasion of the second presidential vote in December 2021, which, according to what they stated, would have caused electoral fraud by incorporating one million votes, was also refuted. non-existent votes for Mr. Gabriel Boric’s candidacy,” he added.
“Regarding the fingerprint, they were made aware that if it were stamped on the vote, its secrecy contemplated in the Constitution would be violated; that the fingerprint in the past has never been stamped on the polling station register either, since only illiterate voters or those who cannot sign do so; that there was only one mark on the finger with supposedly indelible ink that was removed in 2012 due to its ineffectiveness,” he added.
“Regarding the request for a parallel vote count, they were informed that this only corresponded to a deep ignorance of the electoral legislation, since currently there are, in addition to the preliminary results of the Servel without legal value as scrutiny, the provisional scrutiny of the Scrutinizing Colleges the day after the election and the final and definitive scrutiny carried out by the Electoral Qualifying Court. Therefore, in terms of parallel counts there are already three, “he continued.
Lastly, he regretted “Mr. Muñoz’s statements after the meeting, knowingly persisting in his mistakes.”
Let us remember that Muñoz was imprisoned in 2000 for homicide. Specifically, he was sentenced to five years in prison for the death of Alvaro Dominguez in that year for quarrels in the brave bar of Colo Colo.
