Manuel Rosales, the least thought of Venezuelan opposition candidate, is the governor of the State of Zulia. He assumes responsibility for his candidacy after the official blockade of Corina Yoris, the chosen one of María Corina Machado.
“I call for the largest rebellion of votes that has ever occurred in Venezuela,” Rosales said when formalizing his candidacy in the last minute of a chaotic closing of applications. Rosales is encouraged, say his rivals, by personal ambition and the spirit of compromise with Nicolás Maduro.
