CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) -- President Hugo Chavez appeared almost certain to have survived a referendum that sought to oust him, the head of the elections commission said Monday.
With 94 percent of the vote counted, 58 percent voted to keep Chavez in office, said Francisco Carrasquero, president of the election commission. Chavez supporters immediately set off fireworks and began celebrating in the street.
Haydee Deutsch, an opposition leader, said fraud had been committed and that the opposition "has no doubt that we won by an overwhelming majority."
