Former lawmaker Delsa Solórzano, representative of the opposition’s Unitary Platform coalition, says authorities have blocked her entrance to the National Electoral Council despite her accreditation. They have also blocked two other representatives of the coalition.
“We insist that it is not the same to make a complaint face to face as making it in a WhatsApp message or an email,” said the longtime politician known for her defense of human rights and imprisoned political leaders. “They don’t give a reason for this situation.”

They learned well from the democrats.
Former legislator Delsa Solórzano, representative of the opposition’s Unitary Platform coalition backing candidate Edmundo González, denounced electoral authorities hours after polls had been scheduled to close.
“There is an important number of voting centers where they are removing our witnesses,” she said. There are others where she said, “they refuse to transmit and print the tallies produced by the voting machines, whose copies are essential to verify that the results correspond with the official results.”
Four hours after the closing time of polling stations expired, electoral authorities have still not officially closed voting.
“At this moment, the National Electoral Council has paralyzed the transmission of the voting tallies,” Solórzano said. Without showing evidence, she said “they are blocking the transmission to prevent a greater number of voting tallies.”
“With the tallies that we have, which are quite numerous,” said Solórzano, “we can say what is happening in the country.”
It's deja vu all over again.
All those ready to declare Solorzano impartial, raise your hands.
Why FR believes the MSM about ANYTHING is hard to fathom.
Venezuela elections get won because the govt floods the slums of Caracas and various cities with handouts. Period. It’s how Chavez won and it’s how Maduro won.
Doing that was enough to win. There was no need to do all these other things of which they are accused.
Read the articles carefully. They are Swamp focused. They will be quoting this govt opposition person or that one. Often they quote “business leaders”.
They never quote the welfare recipients. It is they who get those handouts and it is they who have the numbers.
Populism arrived in Venezuela via Chavez long before its current surge globally.
There were numerous polls in recent months showing the opposition way ahead. Were those polls accurate and if not, were they cooked by foreign journalists?
Sounds like Detroit and Atlanta.
