Venezuelans are voting in a presidential election that might carry main modifications to their nation.
It has been referred to as Venezuela’s most essential election in a technology.
The opposition hopes for a landslide victory that might pressure President Nicolás Maduro into talks on a transition of energy.
That is the largest problem confronted by the nation’s socialist regime in 25 years.
Years of financial collapse and political repression have weakened the socialist revolution launched by late President Hugo Chavez in 1999.
If Maduro is defeated, will he acknowledge the end result — or will he attempt to keep in energy? What does this consequence imply for Venezuela and South America?
