Fight Back News Service is circulating the following Oct. 9 statement from the Venezuelan Ministry of People’s Power for Communication and Information. The statement was translated from Spanish by the staff of Fight Back!

The Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV) will activate the electoral final dash until Oct. 12 – when the campaign for regional elections will end – in order to guarantee the victory of revolutionary candidates.

PCV spokesman Oswaldo Ramos reiterated that this political organization is committed to the forces of the Great Patriotic Pole to achieve victory in the 23 governorates, with the slogan “Together for the Fatherland to Resist and Advance Forward.”

Mobilizations in all regions of the country

Ramos stressed the mobilization in all regions of the country “with the firm intention of closing the door on fascism” and the opposition sectors that between April and July sponsored political violence “and intended to hand the country over to imperialism.”

He urged the people to go massively to polling stations this Sunday and support the candidates of the homeland in order to consolidate the progress of the Bolivarian Revolution.

At the Monday press conference, Ramos recalled the 50th anniversary of the assassination of Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara. “With his death, imperialism intended to end this revolutionary example for the world, but they have failed,” he said.
