Glad it helped, man.

With regards to the election, this is not surprising. They've been calling it ''fraud'' since the days of Chávez. Venezuela has had around 33 electoral processes that even President Carter called ''the best in the world'', for how transparent and effective the process is. The opposition parties have neglected to participate in some, specially presidential elections, and their excuses are always the same, that it's fraudulent, that the electoral process props up the ''dictatorship'', that they're not ''free and fair'' elections, etc.

You know that lib bullshit of ''alternability''? They wish they were back in the 4th Republic which was a bipartite dictatorship, basically. Those parties, Acción Democrática and COPEI, governed uninterruptedly while maintaining the facade of ''democracy'' by alternating. That's why this concept is so valuable to libs, it preserves the veneer of liberalism itself.

Every accusation is a confession, as the saying goes. The fraud was coming from inside the house, from Súmate, María Corina Machado's party. You know what they did? They necroed people's names to fill in their supposed ''actas'', the papers that you get after you vote there, as proof. They had an alternate CNE, the Concejo Nacional de Elecciones, based in Miami that ''counted'' their votes, and they made up their numbers. It was not only the undead voting, but some doppelgangers, too. These numbers they cooked, were on a server in the UK or somewhere else, it's been a while. The point is that just like they tried to fake a presidency with Guaidó, they created alternate instances of Venezuela's institutions in Miami in order to carry out this fraud.

Prior, during and after every electoral process in Bad Country(TM), libs and some ''leftists'' crawl outta the woodwork sowing doubt to lay the groundwork for protests. This has been the methodology of the Venezuelan opposition with the aid of the ''international community''. The process goes like this: Sow doubt by calling it ''fraud'' before the election, call people to come out and protest once you lose, have ruffians recruited by your party carry out burnings of people, attacks on institutions, murders, looting, etc, while calling for an international intervention, call for sanctions along with that, do speaking tours on every gusano channel and MSM bullshit, lobby the ''international community'', cash in with supposed ''humanitarian aid'', or scams like ''Ya Casi Venezuela'', ''Venezuela Aid'' concert in Cucutá, Colombia, scam and gaslight your own followers all along, rinse and repeat.

So in the end, this was nothing new, even the Supreme Court got involved and pointed out the invalid ''actas'' from the opposition, but they continue believing they won and propagating doubt, even if they didn't make Edmundo González Urrutia a Guaitwo. It's not dissimilar to the ''Stop the Steal'' thing the chuds did over in the US and the parody of Jan 6 we had in Brasil. If there's something reactionaries always do is play from the same playbook we've read a hundred times.

Sorry for the long response, I just wanted to contextualize and offer some examples.
