Venezuela's Stability at Risk Ahead of Election

Supporters of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez fought with supporters of opposition candidate Miranda state Gov. Henrique Capriles Radonski on Sept. 12 in the biggest instance of political violence so far in Venezuela's presidential campaign. Voters will go to the polls Oct. 7 to determine whether Chavez will serve a fourth consecutive term as president. Over the course of the next three weeks, more violent political clashes can be expected throughout the country.
