A constitutional referendum was held in Chile on 17 December 2023,[1][2] to determine whether the public approved a new constitution drafted by an appointed committee of experts and amended by an elected Constitutional Council.[3] The new text of the constitution was approved by the Council on 30 October and put to a vote on 17 December.[4]

The proposed constitution was rejected by a 12-point margin, with 56% of the electorate voting against the constitution and 44% in favour.[5][6][7]
