Venezuela's regional election results are coming in: it looks like that half of Caracas is now opposition, and half Chavista. Democracy! The opposition seems to have picked up some wins in the states of Miranda, Zulia, Nueva Esparta, and perhaps Tachira & Carabobo, too. That would be 5 out of 22 states. Congratulations, opposition people! You can win a couple if you participate in this voting thing, and maybe you should try it more, because you are rocking that 23%.
Your editor is heading to this Venezuela place in the morning, on a very early flight, so this is what we've got. Talk amongst yrslvs.
Update: Reuters says "Chavez Wins 17 of 20 Venezuela State Elections." Two still too close to call.

Wow. Considering he wasn't even running for any office (because he occupies one already, duh), that Chávez guy sure passed THAT electoral test.
Now, I wonder how the drama queen of Barquisimeto did.
