Venezuela: Campaigning Officially Begins for December Elections

  • 8 years ago
Election campaigning officially began in Venezuela today ahead of the December 6 legislative elections. Thousands of supporters of the ruling United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV) took to the streets to defend what they consider the key gains of the Bolivarian Revolution in health, education, and eradicating poverty. Reflecting the increasing importance of gender concerns, many more candidates in this year's elections are women. teleSUR
