# Endorsements in the 2024 Venezuelan presidential election

Presidential elections were held in Venezuela on 28 July 2024 to choose a president for a six-year term beginning on 10 January 2025. President Nicolás Maduro ran for a third consecutive term, while former diplomat Edmundo González Urrutia represented the Unitary Platform (Spanish: Plataforma Unitaria Democrática; PUD), the main opposition political alliance.
The Unitary Platform held primaries in October 2023, which were won in a landslide by María Corina Machado. A few months earlier, in June 2023, she had been disqualified for fifteen years by the Comptroller General of Venezuela, but the decision was pending in court.
After she was barred from running, Machado's endorsement of González was an important factor in the election as he gained support from even former socialist supporters of the government, along with support from the Machado-led opposition.
A list of endorsements in the 2024 Venezuelan presidential election follows.
