Government on top; opposition at bottom of the ballot

The parties that support Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez will take the first two rows of the ballot, whereas the organizations that back opposition candidate Henrique Capriles Radonski will be located at the bottom.

The information was supplied by Deputy Juan Carlos Caldera. He also pointed out that from this moment on, all political parties are permitted to launch a campaign to vote directly in the positions occupied by them.

He specified that in the case of his party, opposition Primero Justicia, the box will be at the bottom, on the left hand side. "More than 22 organizations supporting Capriles are arranged from the third row of the ballot downside."

Caldera noted that when choosing the places in the ballot, there was one challenge only by pro-government Nuevo Camino Revolucionario. The National Electoral Council (CNE) will make a decision in this regard in the next few hours.
