The penultimate electoral trap carried out by the Bolivarian revolution, the electoral disqualification of the conservative candidate María Corina Machado, has provoked a wave of support and support both inside and outside Venezuela. “The force that has awakened is not going to be intimidated by the desperate actions of the regime. On the contrary, this is gaining new and strengthened energy!” the conservative candidate responded to one of those messages of solidarity.
Machado not only led all the polls, but had managed to arouse the enthusiasm of the Venezuelan society, fed up with the internal struggles of the opposition and fed up with the ordeal he has suffered since the accession to power in 2013 of the “people’s president”.
“These measures dictated by the Comptroller General of the Republic are unconstitutional and contrary to international standards on human rights. They are not an obstacle to participation in Primary Education,” certified the National Primary Education Commission (CNP), in charge of carrying out to a good port in the internal elections of the opposition, scheduled for October, in which it will be decided who is the rival of Nicolás Maduro in the 2024 presidential elections.
Precisely the majority of Machado’s rivals in those primaries publicly showed their solidarity with the coordinator of Vente Venezuela. “This disqualification, like ours and that of other opposition leaders, ison illegitimate, unjustified and above all unconstitutional. Maduro and the institutions that he controls follow the worst path of designing an election that will only bring more economic, social and political crisis,” protested Henrique Capriles, who has failed to take off in the polls.
Both Capriles and Freddy Superlano, standard bearer of Voluntad Popular (VP) after the exile of Juan Guaidó, are also disqualified. Superlano was already taken from him at the end of 2021 by his electoral victory in the governorate of Barinas.
