The conservative candidate María Corina Machado returned to the electoral pre-campaign after the historic opposition debate with the narrow label of the revolution. The national coordinator of Vente Venezuela suffered the onslaught of Chavista mobs yesterday Friday in La Guaira, a coastal coastline near the capital, and today in Caracas’ Petare, one of the largest favelas in Latin America. In both cases, the escorts and her companions managed to avoid the physical aggression.
“People are clear. The only thing left for the regime is violence because they know they are defeated. Venezuela has woken up because we know that we are going to unite our families,” Machado responded after the latest act of government violence.
The violent and radical groups of Chavismo work in a similar way to the famous acts of repudiation in Cuba: they are people carried by leaders and officials, who also participate in the traps. Despite this, the government ensures that they are spontaneous acts of the people.
“We will continue touring all of Venezuela, to the last corner of our country because this territory belongs to all Venezuelans. What we are experiencing today, far from discouraging this fight, gives us more reasons. Far from intimidating, this drives us. Violence is defeated with force and organization,” stressed the candidate after avoiding today’s aggression, after being introduced at full speed into a vehicle by her companions, while violent groups tried to attack her.
The chavista group attended the electoral act of Machado with banners (“Murderer!, “sellers of homelands”) and whistles, something that also happened yesterday in Vargas. They even repeated scenes similar to those already suffered by another candidate for the opposition primary, Henrique Capriles, with women of great weight who try to reach the leaders with their blows.The former presidential candidate suffered punches, kicks and slaps from these followers of Nicolas Maduro.
“Chavismo came talking about the poor and, after managing the largest amount of money in our history, ended up blackmailing small groups with a bag of poor-quality food in exchange for violating opponents. It is a description of 21st century socialism “, criticized the political scientist Walter Molina Galdi.
The opposition candidates for the October 22 primaries staged this week the first electoral debate in a country where they are banned due to the democratic blockade of the revolution. In the midst of a climate of unity against Maduro, several candidates stood out with their messages, including Machado herself, a great favorite for the opposition inmates. The leader, who defines herself as a center liberal, leads all the polls with a wide margin over the rest of the contenders.
The prominence achieved by Machado in recent weeks provoked a reaction from the Miraflores Palace, which ordered his political disqualification for 15 years so that he cannot participate in next year’s presidential elections, the same ban that Capriles and Freddy Superlano, standard-bearer, already suffer of Popular Will to replace Juan Guaidó. Superlano already won the 2021 gubernatorial elections in Barinas, the cradle of the revolution, but was dispossessed when the government invented a supervening disqualification.
