00:00If he spoke about an adjudication and self-proclaimed,
00:10but any of those instruments are at the hands or knowledge
00:14of the political organizations, any political party,
00:18including the movement for Venezuela,
00:20no, even 11 days after the electoral process, what
00:25was the voting, the total voting,
00:30but when the law says that tabulating must
00:38be delivered to all participants within 48 hours.
00:43If we don't have the instruments and if the National Electoral
00:47Council haven't done the public publication,
00:51so we ask the electoral chamber, what are we doing here?
00:59Because the only authorized institution
01:04of proclaiming the results of elections
01:07is the National Electoral Council.
01:10But those updates of results must
01:14be the ones of the elections.
01:20And that fact we have to happen within 48 hours
01:25hasn't existed.
01:27The only way of the judicial order
01:31that the electoral chamber take notice of that
01:36is that one of the authors just nullified those results.
01:45And we haven't been explained about this contentious appeal.
01:52And so the law said that all ballots
01:59must be under the custody of officials
02:06through the electoral process.
02:07So we get out from this electoral chamber
02:13with more citations.
02:15And it is an irregular topic in which
02:19we have to demand that the institutions must
02:23be at the service of transparency
02:26and demanded the National Electoral Council
02:29to be attached to the requirements
02:32of the organic law that it is being explained clearly
02:38that they have 48 hours for the total.
02:44We were listening to the statement of Jose Ramon Calzadilla
02:47for Movimiento Por Venezuela after the hearings held
02:50at the Supreme Court of Justice in the electoral chamber
02:54as part of the judicial process on the July 28th elections
02:57that was celebrated in Venezuela.
03:00Jose Ramon was also calling on the National Electoral Council
03:04to present the tally sheets of the full count
03:07of the electoral results, was also
03:08denouncing that after 48 hours they have not been presented,
03:12they have not been given these documents according to them.
03:15He's alleging that these documents are not given
03:17and they cannot be certain of what is happening.
03:19And that's why he's calling for transparency
03:21and calling the National Electoral Council to abide
03:24by the constitutional laws.
03:25These are statements that are being delivered following
03:28the hearings that are being held in the electoral chamber
03:30of the Supreme Court of Justice following
03:32Nicolás Perez and Nicolás Maduro's appeal of protection
03:36in the context of the aftermath of the electoral day
03:40in Venezuela.
