Abstract

This chapter is based on the Chilean case, which is relevant because of two significant elements. First, it is possible to identify the adoption of e-democracy tools, as well as a conflict between traditional electoral managers and new ones that disagree about the adoption of digital media. Second, the use of digital strategies is adopted in a context of low electoral turnout levels and allows the inclusion of the youngest population sector to the electoral campaign.
