Carlos Domingo Maldonado Curti (born 21 July[citation needed] 1963) is a Chilean politician and lawyer member of the Radical Party and the Freemasonry.[1]
Maldonado was General Undersecretary of Government (2006–07) Minister of Justice (2007–10) during the first government of President Michelle Bachelet.[2][3]
He was pre-candidate of the Radical Party of Chile (PR).[4][5][6] Later, on 2 September 2022, he was suspended from the PR for having promoted the «Reject» option towards the 2022 Chilean constitutional plebiscite,[7][8][9][10] which was won by that option with a 62% of the votes.[11][12]
Biography
He was born and raised in Cerro Jiménez in Valparaíso.[13][14] His father ―a former radical leader― retired as an employee of the Empresa de Ferrocarriles del Estado (EFE, «State Railways Company»), the same company where his grandfather had been a worker.[15]
His primary and secondary education were at the E-310 School, and the Eduardo de la Barra High School, both public schools. He graduated from the University of Valparaíso[13] School of Law and received a Master degree in Law from the University of Chile.
In 2018, Maldonado was elected as the president of his party.[16]
On 27 March 2019, he joined with Sebastián Piñera.[17]
In the primaries of the Constituent Unity he lost against the candidates Yasna Provoste (winner; christian-democratic) and Paula Narváez (socialist).
