Venezuela, a country with a rich religious history, is gearing up for its upcoming presidential election amidst a backdrop of diverse religious beliefs and practices. While official figures on religious demographics have not been released by the government in over a decade, estimates suggest that the majority of Venezuelans identify as Catholic.
According to various sources, including the U.S. State Department and local researchers, approximately 82%-84% of the population is Catholic, with a growing presence of Evangelicals, Santeria believers, atheists, and other religious minorities making up the rest.
