Trader consensus favors Delcy Rodríguez at 64.5% as Venezuela's head of state by end-2026, reflecting her consolidation of power as interim president since Nicolás Maduro's U.S.-backed ouster in early January. Recent military reshuffles, including the March 20 dismissal of defense minister Vladimir Padrino López and overhaul of top commanders, signal her efforts to neutralize hardliner rivals like Diosdado Cabello while securing loyalty amid U.S. oversight on reforms and oil access. The U.S. sanctions lift on Rodríguez this week further bolsters her position. Maduro trails at 14.9% despite lingering Chavista influence, while opposition figure María Corina Machado's 14% reflects hopes for her announced return and potential democratic transition, though no election date is set, leaving uncertainty in the post-crisis landscape.

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”.
