Venezuela Opposition Leaders Boycott Audit
Advertisements [?]
Time for another tantrum, I guess.

CARACAS, Venezuela Aug. 18, 2004 - Opposition leaders
refused to participate in an audit of Venezuela's failed recall
referendum to oust President Hugo Chavez, dealing a setback
Wednesday to international efforts to dispel allegations of
vote-rigging and prevent more upheaval in the politically
divided country.

Opposition leaders claimed they had unearthed new evidence
of fraud, which they insisted the audit as proposed by former
U.S. President Jimmy Carter and the Organization of
American States would fail to detect.
