Maduro's Tightening Grip

What's happening in Venezuela? Following Venezuela's presidential election a week and a half ago, President Nicolás Maduro's camp—which the opposition says was squarely defeated, a fact backed up by substantial documentation—has yet to release the results it promised to prove its claimed "victory."

"At CNN's request, several experts analyzed the results offered by both the government-aligned National Electoral Council of Venezuela (CNE) and the opposition platform Comando Con Venezuela," reports the outlet. "The experts conclude that the numbers that appear to portray Maduro as the winner are statistically improbable. Data released by the team of opposition presidential candidate Edmundo González Urrutia match 'mathematically and statistically,' the experts say." (This point was also made by guests Daniel Di Martino and César Báez on an episode of my show, Just Asking Questions, that will be released next week.)
