Venezuelan VP: this is a tight vote
Venezuelan Vice-President and leader of pro-reform electoral
taskforce Comando Zamora Jorge Rodríguez Sunday conceded
that the result of the reform vote "is close."
He added that President Hugo Chávez' political organization
hailed the balloting day "despite all of the attempts at destabilizing,
despite the fact that anti-democratic sectors tried to prevent
this vote."
"The referendum took place smoothly. All Venezuelans should
be happy for this. We are familiar with polls; we are used to
live in democracy. Venezuela's is not only one of the world's
most modern democracy, but also one of the world's most deeply-rooted
democracies."
He urged Venezuelans to wait for the first official electoral
result report to be disclosed by the National Electoral Council
(CNE).
