Mud insists on full audit of elections
Losing opposition keeps crying foul play
VENEZUELA’S opposition has demanded an international audit of last Sunday’s regional elections, claiming fraud in one state.
Democratic Unity Roundtable (Mud) coalition parliamentary speaker Julio Borges, leader of the hardline Justice First party, claimed on Thursday to have evidence of vote-rigging in the knife-edge Bolivar state governor election.
The ruling United Socialist Party (PSUV) won 18 of 23 state governorships in the October 15 election, including in Bolivar where the count took several days to complete.
