First Official Bulletín: Caracas es Caracas y el resto es monte, culebra y chavistas (with noted exceptions)
Quico says: The first official results are in. The opposition lost all the toss-ups except the one that mattered: the Metropolitan Mayor’s Office in Caracas.
When all is said and done, we’ll have 5 governorships, including the three most populous, as well as Metro Caracas. We still can’t win anywhere rural, though.
I’m thrilled about the results in Caracas – especially Petare, where Carlos Ocariz is set to win big. But I’m desperately heartbroken about Barinas. We came so close…so close…
