Millions of Venezuelans voted peacefully in regional elections on Sunday following months of violent protests earlier this year aimed at unseating President Nicolas Maduro. Many polling stations remained open past the official 6:00 pm (2200 GMT) closing time to cope with lines of voters, the National Election Council (CNE) said, without giving a time when they would close. No official turnout figures were available, but an electoral commission source estimated turnout at around 60 percent.
