The coalition of parties that oppose the constitutional reform proposal advanced by President Hugo Chávez warned today that the President has prepared 100 laws which will allow him to establish an "authoritarian" Socialism in Venezuela, in the event that the reform proposal is approved in the next Sunday referendum.

The political leaders, supported by university students, assured that the supporters of the "NO" vote are facing all the State's power in an asymmetric electoral campaign, but that they are confident that citizens' involvement by massively going to vote will put a stop to Chávez's "authoritarian" Socialism.

Leopoldo López, major of Chacao municipality, declared that Venezuelans who reject the reform have to vote, because "if we do not vote, we will hardly win."

Henrique Capriles, mayor of Baruta Municipality and leader of opposition Primero Justicia party, pointed out that the government has turned the next Sunday's election into a plebiscite on Chávez's presidency, trying to convince its supporters that Chávez's permanence in power is at stake, reported DPA.
