    Mini cabinet reshuffle in Chile ahead of Sunday's municipal elections

    Voters are expected to shift rightward in local elections this weekend, after several high-profile corruption scandals and a Bachelet reform drive that has failed

    Chilean President Michelle Bachelet announced a slight reshuffling of her Cabinet on Wednesday, a few days ahead of local elections in which her coalition is expected to suffer losses.
