of the citizens who voted for the primary election.

The reason is a supposed electoral fraud, like when Lista Tascon was issued (after the recall referendum, a Chavez Party member, deputy Tascon, obtained the same notebooks with the voters' id illegaly*. Millions of citizens were publicly exposed and thousands of public servants fired.).

Important to know:
1. the State institutions (CNE: electoral council) organized and supervised the election along with the opposition
2. it had been agreed before the primaries that the notebooks should be destructed this time within 48 hours (tonight)
3. in 2009, the Supreme Court reaffirmed the confidentiality of those notebooks

The opposition platform is declaring that the notebooks wont be given to the Supreme Court. They already started burning notebooks in some places.
We're all waiting for Chavez to speak.



*There are 2 versions on exactly how they obtained it, but both are completely illegal and highly reprehensible. You may start by reading this link before searching for more:
