Venezuela recall referendum: Voters told to confirm identities
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-36505916

Excerpt:

  1% of voters on the electoral roll have to sign a petition within 30 days to kick-start the process

    20% of voters (almost four million) have to sign a second petition in order to trigger the referendum

    For the referendum to be successful, an equal or greater number of voters than those who elected Mr Maduro would have to cast their vote in favour of the recall - he won the 2013 election with 7,587,579 votes

That's an interesting process to initiate a recall election.

The process was changed by the government more than once during the recall to make it harder.

Plus a lot of people are scared that the signee's will be targeted by the violent regime, it has happened before in that country.

Now with local CLAP distributing food to regime supporters, signers might find themselves without.
