All of my friends, both Venezuelan expats and those still in country, are just crushed that Chavez “won”. A tragedy all the way around.

Welcome to the world of the “freely-elected” dictators. Of course Chavez lost; but then, the magic happens behind closed doors and voila! Chavez is declared the winner!

I never had any doubt about the final outcome. He did it last election cycle, too!

Cheers

El presidente venezolano consigue el 54% de los votos con el 90% escrutado y gobernará seis años más. La participación ha alcanzado el 80,94%

This is what EL Pais,a major paper in Spain,says.My very,very limited command of Spanish tells me that Chavez is getting 54% of the vote at present.Even if my translation is incorrect I predict that he'll have 80% of the vote when all the votes are "counted".

Oh my goodness, what if something like this happens here?

Is there any point anymore to Venezuela? I mean they are done until this guy dies, and maybe even after that, no?

I’m thinking the government reports must be accurate /s/

Venezuela is a rising star. Who would dare doubt the reports? Does the sun rise in the east?

Why are FReepers so ready to accept THESE exit polls while here in the US in 2004, not so much?

Are Venezuelan exit polls better than US exit polls?
