List of electoral observers for the presidential elections
The Carter Center, an American NGO founded in 1982 by former President Jimmy Carter, was one of the foreign organizations invited as electoral observers directly by the National Electoral Council (CNE).
The UN Panel of Electoral Experts is another institution that received the same invitation, announcing last June that the team only has instructions to produce “an independent and internal report” for the information of the secretary general of the institution, Antonio Guterres.
Likewise, the Carter Center and the United Nations mission were the only missions accredited to carry out purely technical observation tasks.

So far, it has not been specified what powers these delegations will have in electoral observation.
The aforementioned agency added that the Washington Office on Latin America (WOLA) revealed on July 24 that, in addition to ROAE, three other organizations had received accreditation to observe the election: Proyecto Social, the Center for Higher Studies and the Venezuelan Association of Jurists. Although there is no clear history of the latter that justifies them being accredited observers.
