VENEZUELA'S SOCIALISTS GEAR UP FOR PRIMARY ELECTIONS AHEAD OF REGIONAL VOTE

The ruling United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV) held the first step of its primary election Sunday by selecting candidates for the November 21 regional and local elections.

Members of the country's largest party took part in local assemblies known as Bolívar Chávez Battle Units (UBCh) to discuss and select their candidates for various positions up for grabs, including 23 governorships and 335 municipalities, as well as representatives for regional and local legislative chambers. More than 60,000 people were chosen as primary pre-candidates according to party officials.

VENEZUELA'S SOCIALISTS GEAR UP FOR PRIMARY ELECTIONS AHEAD OF REGIONAL VOTE

The winners of this first stage will now be vetted by the PSUV before running in a subsequent primary process on August 8. The final results have yet to be announced by the PSUV, with a number of local UBChs denouncing irregularities in the process. The ruling party will also make room for candidates from other parties that form part of the Great Patriotic Pole (GPP), a coalition of pro-government parties and movements that run on a joint ticket in elections.

The primary elections are being viewed by the party leadership as part of an effort to reinvigorate the grassroots, affording them the space to directly choose candidates, a departure from the opaque, top-down process used by the party in recent elections.

ESTABLISHMENT FIGURES DOMINATE PSUV PRIMARY ELECTIONS IN VENEZUELA

Sunday’s primary elections were marred by denouncements of localized violence and other accusations of irregularities.

Social media users posted videos of fistfights and violent confrontations between competing
PSUV factions, particularly in Zulia, Guárico, Lara, Mérida and Táchira states. There were additional complaints of incumbents buying votes and pressuring public sector workers in Aragua, Monagas, Sucre and Miranda states.

Early reports of “serious violence” in the flagship El Maizal Commune in Lara state, where prominent communard Angel Prado challenged
PSUV establishment figures for the mayoralty candidature, also spread quickly on social media. Local communards reported that they were being denied entry to some voting centers, with some injured in confrontations.

#Venezuela is set for the November 21 “mega-elections.” Will the government party remain the hegemonic political force? Will the opposition (US-backed and moderate) make inroads or rely on the usual fraud call?
