Venezuelan opposition leader Henrique Capriles said he would go to the Supreme Court Thursday to contest the results of last month's presidential race.
Venezuela's National Electoral Council (CNE) Monday officially declared Nicolas Maduro to be president elect for the 2013-2019 presidential term, after confirming his victory in Sunday's presidential race and rejecting the claims of fraud from opposition candidate Henrique Capriles.
Venezuela's opposition leader Henrique Capriles said early Monday that he refused to accept the election results and demanded recount of all votes after Acting President Nicolas Maduro narrowly won Sunday's vote.
With the presidential election less than two weeks away, Venezuelan Acting President Nicolas Maduro led opposition leader Henrique Capriles by 20 percent in latest polls.
