Venezuela extends time period to run for president in fraud election... not enough suckers applied

They look for more candidates: CNE extended 48 hours nominations for presidential
The Cooperator

Caracas, February 28.- The National Electoral Council (CNE) extended the nomination period for candidates for the presidential elections of April 22 on Tuesday, 48 hours, according to the commission's announcement in a press release.

The authorities of the Electoral Power decided to extend for 48 hours the period of nomination of candidates and candidates, at the request of various organizations for political purposes. This decision is adopted in order to fully guarantee the exercise of the political rights of Venezuelan women and men within the framework of the Constitution and the laws," says part of the text.

The same, was published late on Tuesday night, after President Nicolás Maduro formalized his candidacy for re-election. Henri Falcón, also did the same and inscribed his candidacy supported by his party Progressive Advanced, MAS, Copei and Ecological Movement. However, the opposition condemned the action considering that "it departs from the unity and democratic sentiment of the Venezuelan people."

"...within the framework of the Constitution and the laws..." High comedy! Chavismo has no use for the Constitution, which it hasn't bothered to consult since 2015. The TSJ, CNE and ANC are all unconstitutional. As are these fraud early elections. And the elections that keep getting postponed.

Henri Falcón... possibly the ONLY person in Venezuela more despised than Nick Maduro. Perpetual failed candidate and former Chavista governor of Lara... whose campaign believes in Chavismo... he believes that the wrong people are running it!
