It’s interesting the only two that don’t change colour are Venezuela (all Maduro) and Paraguay (three different right wingers).

Two party systems are awful. Parliament + Ranked voting is so much better.

The US has been working overtime and without rest in order to undermine left-leaning governments in South America, so these types of maps hide a huge truth.

Maduro is not the president of Venezuela, he lost last year, he’s still there because if he gives up the power he will be either in jail or eliminated.

It’s kinda healthy. It would be bad if the same regime was always in power (looking at you Venezuela)
Why is it a “flip flop”, isn’t it kinda expected that people will want different parties in power from time to time, with the exception of very odd places like Japan (extreme example) and the UK (substantial preference for a single party/ideology).
Also the division is wrong because there’s a difference between ideology of the president and the government, since in presidential systems the majority/coalition doesn’t decide the head of government. You can have a very left wing/right wing president that effectively runs a centre-something government due to not having majority in the legislative houses.

Chile was governed by a center-left coalition for 20yrs spanning 4 presidents between 1990 & 2010.. Before Piñera (center-right) was elected in 2010, the right wing had not won an election since 1958.

Lula, Dilma Rousseff and Fernández are centre-left. I would also label Piñera as centre-right, in my opinion he is more moderate than newly-elected Kast.

I like Milei. He turned around his country from the brink successfully. We desperately need someone like him in Germany.
