Rodolfo Rafael Carter Fernández (born 6 June 1971) is a Chilean politician.
From 2011 to 2024, Carter served as mayor of the La Florida commune in the capital city Santiago.[2][3] Similarly, he was a member of the conservative party Independent Democratic Union (UDI), from 1999 to 2015.[4]
By 2023 he managed to become part of the mayors with influence at the national level. Despite his disassociation with the UDI, in 2018, the party's president, Jacqueline van Rysselberghe, described him as one of the most important militants who have resigned.[5]
Biography
[edit]He is the son of Jorge Carter Caneo and Gloria Fernández Cruz. He has a younger brother, Congressman Álvaro Carter.[1]
In 1977, his family moved to La Florida. Rodolfo Carter studied at the Salesian School of Macul and later joined Pontifical Catholic University of Chile (PUC) School of Law, graduating in 1998. His father died during his final year of studies.[6]
Political career
[edit]His first encounter with politics came during his time in the High School, where he became president of his Student Council in the 1980s.[6]
In 1997, Carter participated in Rodrigo Álvarez Zenteno's parliamentary campaign and, after his election, worked as a legislative advisor. During that time, he traveled to Punta Arenas for three months, where he taught commercial law at various universities.[7]
He thus joined the Independent Democratic Union (UDI), which nominated him as a councilor for La Florida in the 2000 municipal elections, where he was elected for three consecutive terms.[7][8]
In 2011, following the resignation of La Florida Mayor, Jorge Gajardo, he assumed that position on an interim basis, and in the 2012 municipal elections he was ratified in the municipal seat, defeating former councilor Gonzalo Duarte from the Christian Democratic Party.[9]
