It’s pretty good analysis: 80% of the machines is A LOT of machines, and there’s the kind of variations across desks you’d expect when things aren’t fake. 67% is a big margin of victory, so expecting a different result in the other 20%, or even the crazier Maduro victory in the mail-in vote defies belied.
But as we almost learned in the US election of 2020, winning the vote count doesn’t necessarily have to matter if the political apparatus is captured well enough. How many people are willing to get shot for this? Are maduro’s troops really willing to shoot them all? Because Maduro isn’t going to bow to international pressure, as nobody is going to be sending an army against him
