PSUV party honcho Diosdado Cabello (Venezuela) admonishes Chavisas to vote, but not Venezuelans.

Election day in Venezuela.

translated from Spanish

-snip-

"Good morning compatriots, here we are heading for a new victory for the revolutionary forces, we report normality in the installation of polling stations and tables, our witnesses and 4x4 machinery, UBCh - Bolívar Battle Unit - Chávez-, RAAS -Red of Articulation and Socio-political Action- and patrollers in their battle positions."

Because Bolivar Battle Units and "patrollers in their battle positions" are exactly what is needed when selecting the new batch of knuckleheads loyal to the party (but not Venezuela) take their new positions at political local level.

Reports coming out of Venezuela (friends and relatives) say turnout is abysmal and colectivos (equivalent to the Ortega's Sandinista Youth, or Hitler's SA) have taken it upon themselves to threaten those non-voters seen out in public. Probably because there is nothing to lure them in to vote, like food bribes, or worthless Bolivars the last time.
