Ernesto Araneda Rocha (5 December 1897 – 1 February 1978) was a Chilean public employee and politician who served as Deputy for the 20th Departamental Group during the 1953–1957 term.
Early life
Araneda was born in Río Claro to José Jervasio Araneda and Filomena Rocha. On 7 December 1919, at age 22, he married Blanca Ester Briones Mardones in Collipulli. They had six children, including future communist senator Ernesto Araneda Briones.[1]
By the late 1920s and early 1930s, he moved with his family to Santiago. He worked for the Empresa de los Ferrocarriles del Estado and later for the Caja de Crédito y Fomento Minero between 1947 and 1953.[1]
Political career
Araneda joined the Democratic Party and became its second vice-president in 1932. As a party leader, he signed the first manifesto of the Popular Front on 20 May 1936.[2]
He later joined the Progressive Liberal Party. In the 1953 parliamentary election he was elected Deputy for the 20th Departamental Group, supported by the Ibañista movement. He sat on the Agriculture and Colonization Committee.
On 28 October 1954 he was stripped of parliamentary immunity after opposing the enforcement of a transfer order issued under a state of siege.[3]
In the 1957 parliamentary election he ran for Senate representing the Democratic Party within the FRAP coalition. His candidacy clashed with that of his son in the same region, and despite internal negotiations, Araneda was ultimately defeated.[4]
