La exlegisladora María Corina Machado fue declarada ganadora el jueves de las primarias organizadas por la oposición para elegir a un candidato único que enfrentará al presidente Nicolás Maduro en 2024, en una elección que fue desacreditada por el gobierno.
Machado se adjudicó el domingo un respaldo popular de 92,35% con el conteo de casi 93% de los votos, según los resultados de la comisión organizadora. La oposición logró movilizar a 2,4 millones de venezolanos a las urnas, según las cifras de la Comisión Nacional de Primarias que fue la encargada de los comicios.
La comisión declaró a Machado ganadora el jueves en una ceremonia en la que estuvieron presentes los líderes de los partidos opositores y varios de los candidatos que participaron en la contienda. En un intento por empañar los comicios, Maduro y algunos de sus aliados sostuvieron que las cifras de votantes fueron infladas y que no se trató de una elección sino de un montaje. Las críticas fueron desestimadas la víspera por Machado.
