Elections in Venezuela: Best and Worst Case Scenarios

LatinNews Season 1 Episode 32
Venezuela will vote for a new president on 28 July in what will not be free and fair elections, that much is certain. But, which way will it go? 

On The LatinNews Podcast this week we explore some of the worst case scenarios facing Venezuela including the possibility of increased repression and massive voter fraud. Or, will Nicolas Maduro seek a negotiated exit for himself and his entourage? 

Joining us is Dr Javier Corrales, the Dwight W. Morrow 1895 professor of Political Science at Amherst College in Amherst, Massachusetts to share his thoughts on the elections, the influence of external actors and discuss all possible outcomes.
