Capriles to formally contest Venezuela poll results

Venezuela opposition leader Henrique Capriles announced Wednesday he would formally contest results from last month's presidential poll, as both sides held rival May Day rallies in Caracas.

Capriles told supporters at his demonstration in eastern Caracas that the formal challenge would be presented to the Supreme Court on Thursday. He had been under a Monday deadline if he wanted to file with the top court.

"We are going to exhaust all the internal fora because we have no doubt that this case is going to wind up before the international community," said Capriles, who had challenged the late Hugo Chavez's hand-picked successor.

"This case is going to end up going to every country where there is a democracy."

Seems Crybaby Capriles would be more inclined to celebrate Riechstad Day.

4. Last year he refused to take part in it saying he was an employer, not a worker

"El martes es una actividad de los trabajadores y así debe mantenerse. Yo soy un empleador"

"Tuesday is a worker's activity and it needs to stay that way. I'm an employer."


What a little shit. His answer was in response to a question asking if he was going to march with the workers on May day.

5. He hasn't already? What is he waiting for? Unless he needs an unprovable from his masters first.
