At least in three states of the country, irregularities have been reported with the installation of the polling stations in view of the election on Sunday, July 28. Through social networks, citizens reported that the Plan República, together with supporters of the PSUV, carried out said installation without the presence of witnesses and members accredited by the CNE.
On the morning of Friday, July 26, social media users reported that in several states of the country, the installation of polling stations was recorded before the time set by the National Electoral Council (CNE) of 8:00 AM.
They warn that officials from Plan República, together with militants from the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), are carrying out this operation without having the accredited personnel to carry out the task.
In states such as Amazonas, Zulia and Anzoátegui, citizens uploaded videos and information to social networks that show the irregularities that military personnel are committing with PSUV militants and where they warn that neither witnesses nor table members are admitted in the process.
