2024 election

Crowds of Venezuelans have taken to the streets demanding the return of an exiled opposition leader and fresh presidential elections. Demonstrators are calling for an end to the current government's hold on power and for the results of the disputed 2024 presidential vote to be respected. The rallies reflect continued public anger over the political and economic crisis, with opposition figures urging supporters to keep pressure on authorities despite the risk of arrest and repression.

The Department of Justice has ordered Rhode Island Secretary of State Gregg Amore to preserve 2024 election records that contain private voter information. The directive ensures documents with personal voter data are retained, likely amid ongoing scrutiny or potential legal proceedings related to the 2024 election. The order places a legal obligation on the state's top election official to safeguard the records.
