Nicanor Silva Silva (– September 1937) was a Chilean politician and member of the Radical Party who served as senator[1] of the Republic.[2]
Political career
Silva was a member of the Radical Party.
He was elected senator for the 6th Provincial Grouping (Talca, Linares and Maule) for the 1926–1930 legislative period. According to Decree-Law No. 542, issued to implement the transitional provisions of the Chilean Constitution of 1925, senators elected from several groupings—including the sixth—served four-year mandates in order to restore the staggered renewal of the Senate.[2]
During his tenure he served on the Standing Committee on Government.[2]
Although his electoral mandate formally covered the 1926–1930 period, the institutional disruption caused by the 1932 socialist coup d'état led to the dissolution of the National Congress on 6 June 1932.[2]
Death
He died in September 1937.[2]
