Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado said she is in hiding and that she fears for her freedom and for her life, in an op-ed published on Thursday in the Wall Street Journal.
Machado, who is the main force behind the presidential candidacy of former ambassador Edmundo González, emphasized that Venezuelan strongman Nicolás Maduro lost Sunday’s election and that she can prove it.
“I write this from hiding, fearing for my life, my freedom and that of my fellow countrymen under the dictatorship of Nicolás Maduro,” Machado wrote in an editorial titled: I can prove that Maduro got trounced.
“Mr. Maduro did not win the Venezuelan presidential election on Sunday. He lost by a landslide to Edmundo González, 67% to 30%. I know this to be true because I can prove it. I have receipts obtained directly from more than 80% of the country’s polling stations.”
Machado has not been seen for 24 hours.
Wait…a Venezuelan pollster (Hinterlaces) did exit polling in Venezuela…where exit polling is illegal? The editor in chief of the site you are using worked for The Grayzone which is pretty notorious for spreading Russian and Chinese propaganda. They have hired many people from RT and Sputnik.
So, you admit the Edison poll is bullshit propaganda? Nice. Can’t take that back homie, the cat’s outta the bag.
Slight difference between a foreign company willing to break Venezuelan laws and the ‘most independent’ Venezuelan pollster, homie. Edison Research has a lot less to lose.
I do love how you show a picture of Machado and try to link her to the 2002 coup attempt despite the picture being taken 3 years later. Good job. You know what Edmundo Gonzalez was doing in 2002? Working for Chávez.
The official results were clearly made up. There was a 1 in 100 million chance that the results for Maduro and Gonzalez both landed exactly on a tenth of a percentage point. The official results were extremely unlikely. And there are receipts showing a very different result.

Like Chávez’ attempted coup in 1992 that failed?
Source?
Are you unaware of the 1992 Chavismo failed coup attempt?
What sources would be acceptable for you?
Any source will do. Are you aware that is 2024?
Complains about unfair election. Breaks international laws to prove it. lol 😂
The source you cited broke international and local law…
I thought you were okay with that? 👍
As an outside perspective, the discussion would have been much more interesting to read if you had had any intellectual integrity whatsoever on these.

You mean like this:

No I mean applying the same logic regardless of your feelings.
Though I am sure you are (deliberately) misinformed as well.
It would also help if you could use your words instead of sending a gif of yourself playing cymbals.
From an inside perspective, this comment would have been much more interesting to reply to if you had any intellectual integrity and contributed to the substance of the post.
