Delcy Rodríguez's position as interim president, following Nicolás Maduro's US-captured ouster in early January 2026, drives trader consensus at 63.5% for her leading Venezuela by year-end, bolstered by her March 18-20 military reshuffle replacing defense minister Vladimir Padrino López and senior commanders to consolidate control amid Chavista hardliner pressures. Maduro trails at 14.6% despite lingering loyalist support, while opposition figures like María Corina Machado (14.5%) and Edmundo González (0.9%) reflect hopes for her announced return and potential snap elections, though no vote date is set and US backing for Rodríguez complicates their path in the uncertain democratic transition.
