Vargas voters assured SuchWhich who see this election as an opportunity for their loved ones to return and for that reason will remain in voting centers as long as necessary to exercise their right to vote.
At noon on July 28, citizens reported slowness at some polling stations. Voters at the Emilio Gimón Starling Educational Complex said they had been there for up to an hour and there was no explanation for the slow process.
At 11:06 in the morning Mairelys Rausseo commented to SuchWhich who was in line to vote at the aforementioned center and had not been able to. “I am here for the future of my children and so that my entire family can return,” she said.
She explained that although she is with her children, her mother, sister and nephews are out of the country. “I have not seen my mother for seven years now, I want to see her, I want her to come back,” she said.
She said she sees this election as an opportunity for her loved ones to return and that is why she will remain at the polling station as long as necessary to exercise her right to vote.
Carolina Reyes, a voter at the same center, located in the Catia la Mar parish, said that she arrived at the center at 9:30 am and had not been able to vote by midday.

“The process is going very slowly. But I plan to stay in the queue,” he said.
He said it is important to stay at the polling stations and participate “for Venezuela, for our children (…) we want something good for Venezuela and for it to change.
He asked those who have not gone out to vote to think about their children and also about those who are outside the country.
There are two voting centres in the aforementioned educational complex: Starling 1 and 2. Centre coordinators stated that 3,864 and 995 people voted, respectively. There are four tables in the first, while in the second only one.
At the Vicente Lecuna school in the Mirabal sector, María Vásquez said she had been in line for an hour and a half. She attributed the slowness of the queue to the large number of voters.
“It is important to vote because it is the duty of all Venezuelans and we have a constitutional responsibility,” he told SuchWhich.
At the Hugo Chávez community hall, a citizen who identified herself as Maira said that she went out to vote today because she wants change.
He said that young Venezuelans deserve a future full of opportunities “for everyone.” He stressed that he is voting for her, for the citizens who left and for the family. “Is it too much to ask for a different Venezuela?”
