The result in Barinas is 'catastrophic' for national Chavismo, according to analysts
The electoral defeat of Chavismo in Barinas, a state governed by Hugo Chávez's family for 23 years, is deemed catastrophic for Nicolás Maduro's government. Sergio Garrido, the opposition candidate, won the governorship by a significant margin, highlighting Chavismo's declining popularity despite winning most governorships in recent elections. Analysts criticize the government's use of undemocratic tactics and suggest the result deepens the political rift within the ruling coalition. The election underscores the importance of local political leadership and may influence future opposition alliances. The outcome also signals a potential shift in political strategy towards grassroots engagement.
