To put this in context, in the 2015 election, the opposition got 7.7 million votes (56%), Maduro’s party got 5.6 million (41%) and estimated turnout was 74% then. So it looks like this year they got a majority, but not a crushing victory.

Socialists never give up power voluntarily. The people should revolt while they still have the strength to fight.
