Nicholas Maduro has won-re-election in Venezuela, but how he did it verges on fraud, if not outright illegality.  He jailed likely opponents.  He bribed the poor with boxes of food at a time when there is none available for anyone in the stores.  He set up tents near polling places to distribute prizes for those who did vote for him.  He ran the election in the face of a boycott at the polls.  The negatives about him are abundant.  He is presiding over a country whose economy has collapsed despite having the largest oil reserves of any nation on earth.  He doesn’t know how to handle hyperinflation, which has rendered Venezuela’s currency worthless.  He has done nothing to slow the outflow of citizens who can no longer deal with the country’s chaos.  Maduro positions himself as a strong man, but he is weak in administration and governance.  His relations with his countrymen are at a low, and if he had run without giving himself overwhelming advantages, he would have lost.  Even so, there are accusations that he had to jigger the voting.  The only thing that keeps him in power is the military with whom he had better maintain good PR.
