Carter Center shows voting acts records at the OAS and insists on the lack of transparency of June 28

Carter Center Senior Advisor for Latin America and the Caribbean Jennie Lincoln stressed the lack of transparency of the National Electoral Council (CNE) regarding the results of the Venezuelan presidential elections, due to the authorities' refusal to publish results broken down table by table or show the voting records of July 28.

Speaking at a session of the Permanent Council of the Organization of American States, Lincoln displayed a series of physical records that he said were sent to him as a sample of the results.

"These records are key elements (…) International and national observers who had access to the primary data, that is, the records, should be able to confirm the reports of the electoral authorities. That was not the case in Venezuela," he insisted.
