People are claiming this image is from the national electoral council (CNE), and the charts on the screens show a Gonzalez victory.
But this isn't from the CNE at all. Rather, it is from Mercal Aragua, a totally different organization with no access to voting information. pic.twitter.com/xbljooxszu

Far-right extremists in Venezuela just burned down a hospital. They're also destroying buses and attacking other public institutions.
These US-backed fascists are trying to violently overthrow the elected government, based on false claims of "fraud" echoed by the US government. https://t.co/y162SzsiVo

Wow. I’ll wait on the final result. No one is talking about Maduro, or did I miss something?

There’s no question that Maduro won the election. What you read in the mainstream media is CIA propaganda.
