I have been following this; it hits a little personal because there are so many Venezuelans where I used to live and even more, because my family came to this country to get out of another communist dictatorship and others still live there. It's heartbreaking to see so many people get their hopes up thinking that their votes meant that a dire situation would change. I'm thinking of the friends there. Let it come.
