In Venezuela, President Nicolás Maduro has won a new 6-year term in Sunday’s contested presidential elections. Most of the opposition parties boycotted Sunday’s elections, in protest of alleged fraud and vote buying by Maduro’s party. The election board said turnout was just over 46 percent, far lower than the 80 percent turnout from the last election in 2013. The United States says it won’t recognize the results of Sunday’s election and is considering new oil sanctions against Venezuela.
