    Venezuela to hold commune elections this weekend

    Maduro also agreed with a bill whereby those who disregard court rulings in his favor cannot participate in electoral processes

    The Venezuelan regime of President Nicolás Maduro heads for Sunday's commune elections with the results of the July 28 presidential polls questioned by about half of the world's governments. Communes are new forms of social organization based on self-management, Agência Brasil explained. There are 4,500 of them nationwide. Communal councils are some sort of permanent popular assemblies of residents of a neighborhood or rural area.
