Conservative candidate Maria Corina Machado won more than 90% of the primary vote.
The National Bolivarian Police raided a club for the LGBT community in Venezuela without a warrant on July 23, after allegedly receiving an anonymous call about noise pollution. Thirty-three men were arrested. Lawyers and relatives of the detainees denounced discrimination because the police found nothing irregular in the premises. They said the charges are unjustified:
On July 22nd, the headquarters of the María Corina Machado's Campaign Command in La Fría, Táchira State, in western Venezuela, and which would be inaugurated two days later, 'woke up' with graffiti identified with the initials of the Colombian guerrilla, the ELN (National Liberation Army). 'Death to María Corina', 'Primaries without María Corina', were spray painted on the walls.
