Exclamation Venezuela Crisis & Sham Election

Quote:
Britain and the US have called Venezuela's landmark vote a "sham" as 10 people - including two teenagers - were killed during violent protests.

Many in the South American country say it is heading for dictatorship and boycotted Sunday's vote for an assembly that would give President Nicolas Maduro virtually unlimited powers.

Opponents reacted with anger and mockery after the National Electoral Council said more than eight million people had voted.

With many polling stations deserted, rivals estimated the actual number was about two to three million.

President Maduro, however, hailed the result as the "biggest ever vote for the revolution".

With a government that is on the take, a Country that is on the brink of becoming a failed State, with a Dictatorship President, there is no way Venezuela with its vast rich oil reserves, should be in the state it is in.
