Polls estimated at least a 40 percentage-point lead for opposition candidate Edmundo González Urrutia ahead of the July 28 election. However, Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro hurried to announce official results, revealing clear evidence of fraud.

For Esteban Hernández, a guest on the Impunity Observer podcast and editor of ContraPoder News, this highlights the limits faced by the opposition under the regime. With all strategies exhausted, including the international recognition of an interim president due to fraud, Hernández warns the dictatorship could solidify its power if aggressive and immediate actions are not taken to overturn the results.
