Maduro and opposition both claim victory in Venezuelan election
The U.S. has expressed 'serious concerns' over the situation
Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his opponent, Edmundo González Urrutia, are both claiming victory in Monday's presidential election.
With 80% of votes tabulated, Maduro stands at 51% to Urrutia's 44%, CNN reported of official results.
Opposition leader María Corina Machado disputed these results, claiming Urrutia received 70% to Maduro's 30%.
"We won, and everyone knows it," Machado said.
Urrutia, at a news conference, alleged election rules were violated. The United States and Venezuala's neighbors have expressed skepticism about the official results.
