Latest venezuela vote count allegedly manipulated

You're referring to the recent presidential election in Venezuela. Yes, there have been allegations of vote manipulation and irregularities in the election process.

On May 20, 2023, Venezuelans went to the polls to elect a new president, with incumbent President Nicolás Maduro seeking re-election against a challenger, Juan Guaidó. The election was widely criticized by the international community, with many countries refusing to recognize the results.

Here are some of the allegations of vote manipulation and irregularities:

  1. Voter suppression: There were reports of voters being turned away from polling stations, particularly in opposition strongholds.
  2. Voter roll manipulation: The opposition claimed that the government had manipulated the voter rolls, removing millions of opposition supporters from the list.
  3. Ballot box stuffing: There were allegations of ballot box stuffing and tampering with votes.
  4. Fraudulent voting: The opposition claimed that the government had allowed fraudulent voting, including voting by people who were not registered or were not eligible to vote.
  5. Lack of transparency: The election process was criticized for lacking transparency, with many observers and journalists being denied access to polling stations.
  6. Intimidation and violence: There were reports of intimidation and violence against opposition supporters and election observers.

The opposition and many international organizations, including the Organization of American States (OAS) and the European Union, have called for the election results to be annulled and for a new, transparent election to be held.

The Venezuelan government, however, has rejected these allegations and claimed that the election was free and fair. The National Electoral Council (CNE) has announced that Maduro won the election with 67.8% of the vote, while Guaidó received 21.8%.

The situation remains highly contentious, with many countries and organizations refusing to recognize the results and calling for a new election. The United States, Canada, and many European countries have imposed sanctions on Venezuela in response to the government's human rights abuses and electoral manipulation.
