With 94 percent of the votes counted, more than 78 percent of Chileans have decided by a landslide to replace country's dictatorship-era constitution

Pinera called on Chileans to turn out in numbers after he cast his ballot early in the upmarket Las Condes area of the capital.

"I am full of hope that things will change and that we will bring a radical turnaround in this country," said Romina Nunez, 42, a poll organiser at the National Stadium in Santiago, the country's biggest polling centre.
