Шаблон:Lead too long Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Family name hatnote Шаблон:Infobox officeholder José Gabriel Alemparte Mery (born 12 March 1981) is a Chilean politician and current vice-president of the reformist party, Democrats.

Alemparte gained relevance for his opposition to Gabriel Boric's government by promoting the rejection of the left-wing constitutional project (2022).[1][2][3] He has been cited by both pro-government and Boric-opponent media, which have tended to criticize or highlight his statements on Sin Filtros (TV program) or Twitter–X.[4][5][6][7] Nevertheless, he was in favor of changing the Augusto Pinochet-era constitution in 2020 and 2023,[8] last failed attempt which was dominated by conservative right[9][10][11] (the Chilean Republican Party).[12]

A close friend of Senator Ximena Rincón (also a former member of Chile's Christian Democracy),[13][14] in 2022, Alemparte was a founding member of the then new Democrats party, whose goal is to be the heir to the values of the Chilean transition to democracy through the Concertación experience (centre-left coalition). Similarly, he was appointed as vice-president of the party in December 2022.

He is a columnist for La Tercera.[15][16][17] Similarly, he has written for El Mostrador.[18]

Career

In 2001, Alemparte joined the Christian Democratic Party (PDC), inspired by the figures of Gabriel Valdés Subercaseaux and the former president Patricio Aylwin (1990−1994). He resigned from the PDC in 2020.[19] During his time with the party, he worked for the two governments of Michelle Bachelet (2006−2010, and 2014−2018 period) in the ministries of Transportation and Telecommunications, Justice and Public Works (2014–2018).

During 2012, Alemparte was the surrogate mayor of Maipú,[20][21][22][23] until Alberto Undurraga's resignation to compete for a seat in the Senate in the 2013 Chilean general election.[24]

Although he was an opponent of Sebastián Piñera's second government (2018−2022), in March 2022 he allied with the Chilean right-wing to reject the proposal of the Chilean Constituent Assembly,[25] being one of the main spokespersons for that cause according to El Desconcierto, pro-Boric newspaper.[26]

Since 2021 Alemparte has been part of Sin Filtros.[27][28][29][30][31][32] In the program, Alemparte frequently accompanies lawyer Francisco 'Pancho' Orrego, from the right-wing National Renewal (RN) party.[33]
