Capriles: My revolution is to provide water, electricity and housing

Referring to the smear campaign that is taking place just 20 days ahead of the presidential election in Venezuela, opposition presidential candidate Henrique Capriles Radonski said on Monday there is still much more to come.

Capriles urged opposition mayor and governor candidates to both work together and secure the secret ballot.

Capriles stated it was important to raise the question about the kind of government the country needs: "Do we want a government able to bring solutions or to foster its revolution? (...) Our revolution is to bring solutions to the problems of all Venezuelans. My revolution is to provide you with water, electricity, housing, education, jobs..."

The presidential candidate also stressed the need for comparing government proposals and the importance of being organized within the communities to prevent them from being seized by partisan interests.

Capriles remarked he would have works carried out inside Venezuelan communities to put and end to sewage problems and to build sport facilities.

He added his Government will involve "peace, modernization, and progress," and will not include a retaliation era.
