Trader consensus favors Delcy Rodríguez at 61% to remain Venezuela's head of state by end-2026, reflecting her consolidation of power as interim president since Nicolás Maduro's U.S.-backed capture and removal in early January 2026. Recent military overhauls, including the March 20 dismissal of longtime defense chief Vladimir Padrino López and top commanders, signal her efforts to tighten control and sideline rivals, boosting perceptions of stability under U.S. oversight amid oil sector priorities. Maduro's odds sit at 19% due to his detention, while opposition leader María Corina Machado's 13.5% reflects hopes for her pledged return and electoral transition, though procedural hurdles and regime continuity temper expectations for near-term change.

In the event that more than one official head of state is listed by the Venezuelan government, this market will resolve to the individual who is listed as having primary status. If no distinction is made, the market will resolve to the individual who first assumed the position.
If no individual holds the position this market will resolve to “No Head of State”.
