Venezuela’s Maduro und Oppositionbeanspruchen beide den Sieg

July 29, 2024 - Präsident Nicolás Maduro beansprucht den Sieg in der Präsidentenwahl von Venezuela, obwohl die Opposition meint, ihr Kandidat Edmundo Gonzalez wäre der Sieger

The head of the National Electoral Council (CNE), Elvis Amoroso – who is a close ally of Mr Maduro – said that with 80% of ballots counted, President Maduro had 51.20% of the vote, compared to 44.02% for his main rival.

The Venezuelan opposition dismissed the CNE's announcement as fraudulent and promised to challenge the result.

It said its candidate, Edmundo González, had won with 70% of the votes and insisted he was the rightful president-elect.

The opposition said vote tallies it had received, as well as exit polls and quick counts, showed González had a lead of 40 percentage points over the incumbent, according to the BBC.
