Venezuela: New Evidence of Electoral Irregularities in Amazonas

Venezuela: New Evidence of Electoral Irregularities in Amazonas
Published 12 January 2016 (8 hours 10 minutes ago)

The new evidence links the opposition governor of Amazonas with vote-buying.



Venezuelan lawmaker Hector Rodriguez presented Tuesday new evidence on the electoral crimes committed in the Amazonas state during the past Dec. 6 parliamentary elections.

Rodriguez, who is the national coordinator of the socialist PSUV party as well as an elected representative for Bolivar state in the National Assembly, presented an audio recording in which the right-wing governor of Amazonas state, Liborio Guarulla, discusses with another man the manipulation of vote machines in a polling station.

This new video follows a previous one in which an Amazonas state government worker, Victoria Franchi, speaks clearly of vote-buying. Rodriguez said Franchi is currently in Colombia under the protection of a paramilitary group.

Rodriguez also showed two more videos in which citizens admit they received money from coordinators of the right-wing MUD coalition to pay people who voted for them.

This is pure fucking comedy gold.
Of course you'll believe it, it fits your agenda perfectly, you just can't bring yourself to believe that your beloved Chavista's could possibly lose, of course it had to be either cheating by the opposition, or the USA/CIA manipulated the vote.

Maduro is going to seize power and become just another dictator thug, matter of fact, he's well on his way, he's already got his rubber stamp lackeys at the Supreme Court to discount 3 fairly elected opposition lawmakers, now this?

Gee, who didn't see this coming?
