- Well, the Centro Nacional Electoral says the difference was 2%, but it's probably more—200.26.166.190 06:17, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
- I remember reading in another news source that Chavez has accused the US government of interfering. On its own, a statement like that would sound rather pathetic, but looking back on the history of his government I'd say there's more than a grain of truth to it. More to the point, does socialism really require a lack of democracy? Perhaps Chavez should be looking more at the modern leaders of Norway and Sweden, rather than Stalin or Lenin.

Voting results are incomplete[edit]
The 51% vs 49% results are were given with only 80% of the votes audited, and there was aprox. 40% abstention from the referendum. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Charliepapa2 (talk • contribs) 01:09, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
