STORYLINE:
A 24 días de las elecciones presidenciales de Venezuela, arrancaron el jueves los actos de campaña en Caracas. Tanto la candidatura oficialista de Maduro como la opositora de Edmundo González, con el respaldo de la líder María Corina Machado, congregaron a sus seguidores en las calles de la capital.
Aunque los 10 candidatos recorren el país desde hace meses, las autoridades fijaron la campaña oficial desde el 4 al 25 de julio, hasta justo tres días antes de la elección presidencial.
Esta elección —en la que más de 21,3 millones de electores están facultados para votar— se perfila como el mayor desafío que ha enfrentado el oficialismo en sus 25 años en el poder, 11 de ellos bajo el mandato de Maduro.
