General elections were held in Venezuela on 5 December 1993.[1] The presidential elections were won by former president Rafael Caldera of National Convergence, who received 30% of the vote.[2][3] Democratic Action remained the largest party in the Chamber of Deputies and Senate, which were elected on separate ballots for the first time.[4] Voter turnout was 60%, the lowest since World War II.[5]
The elections were a departure from the traditional two-party system in Venezuela.[3]
