Venezuela's "NO" on top

 

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is on hot water, on his toughest vote to date in Sunday's referendum on a constitutional reform. The latest polls show voters with a desire to vote NO to change the country's constitution. The decline in the support for the reforms is very evident. A Datanalisis polling company on Saturday said that 49 percent of likely voters will vote "No" while only 39 percent will vote "Yes". The Hinterlaces pollster a government linked pollster released a tracking poll two weeks ago, showing the two in a technical tie, with 46 percent of probable voters opposing the constitutional rewrite and 45 percent backing it. In the meantime, Datos C.A. a very reliable pollster release Monday a poll with NO ahead with 51.1 percentage on the intention to vote NO and only 26.7 with the intention to vote YES, 22 .2 percent said they were uncertain.
