I actually agree with the NYT here, this was a tainted election; Maduro's opposition was clearly funded by the US government, therefore tainting the election.

For all the screaming they do about "Russian meddling" they sure seem to have no sympathy for other countries having foreign powers interfering in their elections.
The election had flaws in it.
How so?
We didn't like the outcome.
was disputed by the opposition
Yeah, so was the 2020 US election. What's your point?
Libs will spend 4 years straight pissing themselves about January 6th, then jump to:
#StopTheSteal
as soon as imperialists need their support.
Voters: “I consent”
USA: “Isn’t there someone you forgot to ask?”
They’ve been outright lying about Venezuela so long I don’t believe anything western media has to say on the topic unless they are writing about how much they’ve been colluding with the us government to lie about Venezuela.
Last election the New York Times openly supported a literal coup attempt.
Don't worry, a bunch of "Venezuelans" on Reddit who speak English are on site verifying the CIA's talking points for us right now so it all must be true
All of whom are posting from Langley, VA for some reason.
Love how after a decade-ish of polling data being absolute dogshift, they’re still leaning on “it didn’t match the polling data, there must be funny business.”
They only did exit polls at 40% of polling locations. Not a single article has any evidence of irregularity other than the exit polling. Wonder how they decided where to poll 
Urban locations most likely, not out of ideological concerns but just that those are easier to poll than in the hinterlands. Which I’m sure skewed the polls.
Yeah a lot of Maduro's support comes from rural indigenous communities who almost definitely weren't part of that 40%
Damn, I would have figured the previous embarrassing attempts at meddling would have made the feds duck their heads and shut up for a while, I guess they're actually banking on American goldfish memory
They will never give up
Look at the Cuba embargo. The revolution is a foregone conclusion yet the cruel embargo persists, 50 years later.
Remember there was over 600 assassination attempts of Fidel Castro, they just can't stop.
Can't wait for all the corrections a year later after the UN and independent election observers deny any irregularities
Former headline is purely unsubstantiated conjecture presented as fact. I assume the threadbare editorial standards at nyt led to the change
Imperialist media in full swing today.
