Abstention 75%, disastrous result for the Government

December 4, 2005

Jorge Rodriguez says abstention was 75%. This is a disaster for
Chavismo. I would like to see how many void votes there are, from the
numbers he is mentioning it sounds like 25% were void or null votes, so
it appears those that feared reprisal voted null, so this is really bad
for the Government. Still votes look high to me from what I saw today in the
poor areas of Caracas.

At the end Jorge Rodriguez said literally: “It is forbidden for the
National Electoral Juntas to issue results which contradict this one”

What is the exact meaning of this sentence?

By the way, whatever happened to the 10 million votes? Where are the 6
million plus missing? In the opposition or waiting for an alternative
to Chavez?
