The Venezuelan recall referendum of 15 August 2004 was a referendum to determine whether Hugo Chávez, then President of Venezuela, should be recalled from office. The recall referendum was announced on 8 June 2004 by the National Electoral Council (CNE) after the Venezuelan opposition succeeded in collecting the number of signatures required by the 1999 Constitution to effect a recall. The result of the referendum was not to recall Chávez (59% no).
The opposition Coordinadora Democrática declared that fraud had taken place and published a preliminary report supporting the conclusions.[1] The Carter Center, the electoral observers and other analysts denied fraud, saying the referendum was performed in a free and fair manner.[2][3][4][5][6] The Carter Center released a paper and statistical analysis at the request of the NGO Súmate to evaluate a study by Ricardo Hausmann and Roberto Rigobon, reaffirming the center's original conclusions.[7]
Statistical evaluations published in 2006 and 2011 concluded that fraud was committed.[8][9]
