The Venezuelan Electoral
Council ratified on
Saturday that there are
full guarantees for
credibility in Sunday"s
referendum on
constitutional reform.
CNE (National Electoral
Council) Rector Humberto
Castillo told press
international observers
will supervise the
process.
Each bloc was able to
select observers that
will be allowed verify
closely "what an
electoral process in
Venezuela is," the
official said.
Representatives of
around 40 nations will
work as observers and be
able to travel
throughout the country
and check the electoral
development.

participation as an
observer of Bolivian ex
President Jorge Quiroga,
known by his position
against President Hugo
Chavez, Castillo said it
shows impartiality and
clarity.
"We have an automated
electoral system, fully
audited, and nobody has
been able so far to find
it ineffective," he

highlighted that at a
central level, there is
a headquarters with
specialized personnel to
respond to any situation
during the electoral
process.
Yepez spoke against the
calls to twist the
results and create
violence, because those
actions far from help
the democratic process. |
