In an effort to secure President Nicolás Maduro's bid for a third term, Venezuela's ruling party recently conducted a voter organizing campaign. Local organizers of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela were tasked with adding 10 voters each into a database who pledged to support Maduro in the upcoming July 28 presidential election. Verification phone calls were made to both organizers and supporters on Sunday to ensure the accuracy of the information.

Party meetings were held across the country to assist organizers who faced challenges in entering voter data due to internet access issues or lack of experience with databases. On election day, local party leaders will be responsible for ensuring that the registered voters turn out to vote.
