Venezuela Poll Shows Socialists on Track to Win Elections
Published 17 August 2015

Pollster Hinterlaces has released a survey suggesting close to 70 percent of Venezuelan voters will cast their ballot.



Over 60 percent of Venezuelans intend to vote in the country’s parliamentary elections in Dec. 6, which are expected to be yet another victory for the government of President Nicolas Maduro, according to survey results released Sunday.

“Current projections indicate that 67 percent of Venezuelans would vote in the upcoming parliamentary elections, a record in this type of (vote),” said prominent Venezuelan journalist Jose Vicente Rangel, while announcing the survey results via private broadcaster Televen.

The prediction that the majority of Venezuelans plan to vote is likely good news for the government of President Nicolas Maduro, as high turnout traditionally benefits his socialist party, the PSUV.

Only 4 percent of survey respondents said they don't plan on voting, while 9 percent stating they were undecided, but leaning toward casting a vote. The survey was conducted by private pollster Hinterlaces. Thirty four percent of potential voters surveyed by Hinterlaces stated they favored the PSUV-led coalition, the Great Patriotic Pole (GPP), which was formed in 2011. Only 19 percent of survey respondents said they preferred the GPP's main rival, the right-wing opposition coalition, the MUD.

3. Feel free to post a more honest and unbiased poll.

Every indication is that the PSUV is going to lose their majority.
Venezuelan's are highly pissed off about the direction of their country, things like the out of control inflation, out of control violent crime, chronic shortages of basic commodities, wholesale corruption of the Maduro regime, etc.

But for you to admit that is to admit that you're wrong about the viability of the Maduro govt., but I'll bet my pension that you're going to blame it on the US Govt via the CIA.
