Predicating the legitimacy of Maduro's government on the election outcome is incorrect, although I understand the motivation
https://www.state.gov/assessing-the-results-of-venezuelas-presidential-election/Maduro's government is illegitimate *regardless of the vote count*
It was formed by a coup in 2016, a real coup not a fake CIA coup
Maduro, in violation of the Constitution:
* illegally overthrew the elected opposition-led parliament
* illegally replaced the entire Supreme Court
* illegally barred opposition candidates and elected representatives
Prior to the coup Maduro said this, at an event to commemorate Hugo Chavez' failed 1992 coup which killed 143+ people
"Will the people allow the oligarchy, which won the National Assembly due to the confusion of a sector of our people, to take political power in Miraflores?"
"That is what we are preparing for, to not allow it by one way or another, by fair means or foul"
