Firstly, that's not how replies work. Secondly, no, they were not rigged elections. A couple of links: https://www.cartercenter.org/documents/297.pdf https://www.cartercenter.org/documents/297.pdf http://eeas.europa.eu/eueom/missions/2006/venezuela/index_en.htm http://eeas.europa.eu/eueom/missions/2006/venezuela/index_en... Of course democracy is not incompatible with Communism. How could it be when the people are enthusiastic supporters of Communism?

  There have been countless statistical anomalies on all elections since 2004; like voting centers with 0 abstention and 100% votes pro-government on extremely remote locations without oversight from the opposition. But please, continue lecturing me on my country's electoral and voting system.

        So there you go. That's how Communism is compatible with democracy. It burns the same fuel: the promise of mass political power.

There were/are enthusiastic supporters for some of the worst causes.[1] Also, historically, comunism did not support occidental democracy systems.[2] [1]http://heavy.com/news/2016/07/new-isis-islamic-state-daesh-amaq-news-pictures-videos-to-the-knights-of-the-khilafah-in-bengal-caliphate-holey-artisan-bakery-cafe-terrorist-attack-full-uncensored-youtube-video/ http://heavy.com/news/2016/07/new-isis-islamic-state-daesh-a...
