The massive abstention rate of over 85% in many areas exposes this election as nothing more than an elaborate farce designed to legitimize Maduro's stolen presidency from July 2024. Empty polling stations across the country and the pre-election arrest of 70 opposition figures reveal the regime's desperation to manufacture consent through intimidation and manipulation. This wasn't a democratic exercise but rather a cabinet reshuffle disguised as an election, where any opposition victories only occur because the regime needs token representation to maintain international credibility.
There's a 55% chance that there will be a civil war in Venezuela before 2050, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
