CARACAS - Venezuelans on Thursday were awaiting election results from former President Hugo Chavez's home state, a stronghold for the ruling Socialist Party, four days after millions of people cast ballots in regional contests across the South American nation.
Freddy Superlano, a member of opposition leader Juan Guaido's party, says he is confident the results, when released, will show that he was won the race. He bases that claim on vote tally sheets, the vast majority of which have been scrutinized. The United States and many other Western powers have refused to recognize Maduro as the legitimate president of Venezuela since he was declared the winner of a 2018 election that was described as fraudulent by Washington, the European Union and many of Venezuela's neighbors.
