 | | The Venezuelan recall referendum of 15 August 2004 was a referendum to determine whether Hugo Chávez, the president of Venezuela, should be recalled from office. |
 | | The president of the Venezuelan Workers Confederation was quoted by the Associated Press as claiming that the Chávez government had begun firing petition signers from government ministries, the state oil company, the state water company, the Caracas Metro, and public hospitals and municipal governments controlled by Chávez's party. |
 | | All Venezuelans aged 18 and up whose names appear on the electoral roll were eligible to vote, including those resident abroad: polling stations were set up in the country's embassies and consulates abroad, including those in Mexico City, Tegucigalpa, Toronto, and New York City. |
