Democratic Independent Regionalist Party (Spanish: Partido Regionalista Independiente Demócrata, PRI) was a Chilean centrist political party. It was formed by the merger of the Independent Regionalist Party (PRI) and the Patagonian Regional Democracy (DRP).[2]
The party was part of the centre-right coalition Chile Vamos and supported the government of President Sebastián Piñera.[3]
In 2019 the PRI suffered an internal dispute after Hugo Ortiz de Filippi defeated Eduardo Salas in the elections.[4] After this, a group of militants left the party to form another called New Middle Class.[5]
The party lost official registration after failing to get a minimum percentage of the vote in the 2021 elections.
