As Venezuela holds a presidential election Sunday, what does its religious landscape look like?
				
																	
								
				What do Venezuelans believe in? The government has not published official data for years, but academics rely on projections and field work to have a sense of the religious landscape. Religion may not have a direct impact on the election Sunday, when President Nicolas Maduro might be reelected for a six-year term. But religiosity has played a role in the past few decades, especially during his predecessor's government. Religious groups say they generally enjoy freedom of religion or belief so long as they refrained from criticizing Maduro-aligned figures or policies.
