Caracas, November 16, 2022 (OrinocoTribune.com)—This Tuesday, November 15, Hinterlaces, the Venezuelan pollster firm, published its ranking with the most unpopular opposition leaders in Venezuela. Former deputy Juan Guaido leads the ranking shared by Hinterlaces on its Twitter account. Not to mention Guaido’s forthcoming expiration of the imaginary “interim president” of Venezuela “title.”
According to the ranking of the most unpopular opposition leaders, Juan Guaidó has the most “unfavorable” position with 83%. Only 11% see him in a “positive” way and another 6% said they “didn’t know or didn’t answer.”
The poll, conducted in October 2022, having a 3% margin of error, was the result of 1,200 interviews conducted all over Venezuela on a stratified sample.

Opposition primaries
The opposition primaries commission are already in operation, and this is being debated in Venezuelan news outlets on a daily basis.
