The Spin

Establishment-critical narrative

One may now definitively conclude any speculation and allegations about the result of the 2024 Venezuelan presidential election. The Supreme Court's ruling unequivocally affirms Pres. Nicolás Maduro's reelection for a third term after a multinational team of experts examined electoral evidence and certified the results.

Pro-establishment narrative

As predicted, the regime-dominated Supreme Court sided with Nicolás Maduro and declared him the winner of last month's election. Maduro is doing what every tyrant does: restricting liberties, cracking down on the opposition, and stealing elections. Edmundo Gonzaléz won by a landslide and is the genuine president of Venezuela.
