00:00Venezuela's Acting President, El Cis Rodríguez, announced the date of the next National Popular
00:04Consultation in 2026, which will take place on October 18.
00:08This announcement was made during a Zoom meeting with the People's Government, System and
00:12the Government Chambers, but Rodríguez played a key role.
00:15Also, during the meeting, the Acting Head of State invited the daily variant people
00:20to prepare for the presentation of the projects by the communal circuits and condominium boards.
00:25The Popular Consultation is a mechanism of direct democracy that allows communities to decide
00:30on their investment priorities within the framework of strengthening popular power.
00:40I'm going to change the date of the consultation.
00:43I had said it would be on October 11, but they told me that would be a killer, boring day
00:51because there's a holiday on the 12th for Indigenous Resistance Day, a day of struggle
00:56for Venezuela.
00:59And the new date will be October 18, so let's all get ready for October 18.
01:07All the communal circuits, the condominium boards, we already had the project ready, well, let's
01:14move forward, and on October 18 will hold an election.
