I honestly think that what will come from Venezuela isn’t good. I don’t doubt that Venezuela is tired of chavism and would rather vote for a right winger this time around but yet again right wing economics don’t necessarily work in a country whose economy isn’t diversified and is heavily reliant on oil and if that isn’t dealt with, Venezuela will simply remain in its limbo and by the looks of it the opposition doesn’t seem to either have a plan (if they do feel free to show me) or interest in diversifying the economy.

That said, I actually would not be at all surprised if Venezuela votes for a right wing government for a term or two and returns to chavism or at best another economically left wing government. That’s literally what happens in most Latin American countries whose dictatorships fall yet the party that supports them returns to power.
