Tycoon Pinera favourite in Chile presidential election
Source: BBC

Chile is voting for a new president, with opinion polls suggesting billionaire Sebastian Pinera is the frontrunner.

The centre-right businessman is one of four men vying for the job.

He is up against three left and centre-left candidates - Eduardo Frei, Marco Enriquez-Ominami and Jorge Arrate.

BBC correspondents say the signs are that the country could be about to shift to the right, after 20 years of centre-left rule.
