Venezuela Votes! (And Other Terrible Threats to Democracy)

voteordie.jpgCheap wine? Check. Google trigger finger? Check. Sit back people, we're "covering" this Venezuela referendum thingy until it's over or we pass out or get bored, whichever comes first. Feel free to post rumors and gossip in the comments section or whatever.

8:01 PM: Oh great "Officials from both camps said their early exit polls showed their side had won, although they did not publish their results."

8:05 PM: Opposition blogger Quico is already calling a massive 9-point win for the Chavez camp 54-45%

8:09 PM: Al Jazeera is calling it for the "Si" vote, as per exit polls.

8:27 PM: Don't miss FAIR's analysis of the press coverage leading up to the referendum, btw. You'll be shocked, no you won't.

8:41 PM: The Times of London--"The latest poll, by an independent Venezuelan agency Datanalisis, showed Mr Chávez leading his opponents by 6 points."

8:43 PM: In case you're not reading the comments, Otto's got additional exit poll results. But it's Otto, so, you know.

8:49 PM: This just in from Simon Romero!!! "Tight vote expected in Venezuela." Jesus, this guy.

9:03 PM OMG "the No votes appeared to be ahead"! In Miami.

9:24 PM: Miami Herald is calling it for Chavez. The couldn't bring themselves to write a story more than one line long, though. Check back often for funny/deranged commenters.

2. Nothing better than BoRev. It seems to be a language not everyone is able to learn,

as you may have noticed.

Interesting to learn an opposition blogger predicted a decent win for the decent people!

Thanks for posting this. It's as always, so very, very good.
