In a pointed message on social media tonight, Florida Senator Marco Rubio rejected the results of the Venezuelan elections held Sunday that, according to the government-controlled Centro Nacional Electoral (CNE), gave a new triumph to the current president, Nicolás Maduro.
Hours before, Rubio had sounded the alarm about potential fraud in today's Venezuelan elections. Rubio, a longstanding advocate for Venezuelan democracy, emphasized the high stakes of the election and expressed concerns over the legitimacy of the process under the current regime.
