[Venezuelan's are fingerprinted as they vote]

The Venezuelan Electoral Council ratified on Saturday that there are full guarantees for credibility in Sunday"s referendum on constitutional reform.

CNE (National Electoral Council) Rector Humberto Castillo told press international observers will supervise the process.

Each bloc was able to select observers that will be allowed verify closely "what an electoral process in Venezuela is," the official said.

Representatives of around 40 nations will work as observers and be able to travel throughout the country and check the electoral development.

In relation to the participation as an observer of Bolivian ex President Jorge Quiroga, known by his position against President Hugo Chavez, Castillo said it shows impartiality and clarity.

"We have an automated electoral system, fully audited, and nobody has been able so far to find it ineffective," he said.

CNE member German Yepez highlighted that at a central level, there is a headquarters with specialized personnel to respond to any situation during the electoral process.

Yepez spoke against the calls to twist the results and create violence, because those actions far from help the democratic process.
