Description | CARACAS, Venezuela (CNN) -- Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has invited opposition leaders to meet with him and called for reconciliation after surviving a weekend recall vote, but said his opponents must learn to "lose with dignity."
Election officials said 58 percent of Venezuelans voted Sunday to keep Chavez in office for the remaining two years of his term.
Opposition leader Henry Ramos Allup called the vote "an incredible fraud," but international observers said the official results matched their counts at polling sites. |
