In a surprising move, the leader of Venezuela’s opposition, María Corina Machado, announced her support for candidate Edmundo González Urrutia to run against dictator Nicolás Maduro in the country’s upcoming presidential elections in July. This decision came after Corina was deemed ineligible by the Supreme Court of Justice.
González, a 76-year-old diplomat, was confirmed as the candidate after Manuel Rosales withdrew his nomination from Um Novo Tempo (UNT). In a video posted on social media, Corina expressed unity and strength among the opposition, stating that they were already on the ballot with a candidate supported by all political parties and citizens. Her support was crucial for the opposition ticket to move forward in the electoral race.
The Democratic Unitary Platform (PUD) registered González as a “provisional candidate” for President after the National Electoral Council (CNE) rejected the registration of Corina Yoris, Maria Corina’s chosen replacement. Urrutia accepted the candidacy and expressed his honor and responsibility in being the candidate for change through electoral means.
Meanwhile, various articles discussed other topics such as hiring professional roofing companies in Rockwall and choosing qualified movers in Jackson. Additionally, an issue with certificate verification was identified on a user’s profile on a startup fundraising platform.
