The warning by General Vladimir Padrino Lopez, who is also Maduro's defense minister, came after more than two months of violent clashes between protesters and security forces. The opposition and a press rights group say security forces have attacked, robbed and run over protesters and journalists. Fresh clashes erupted Wednesday as thousands of protesters tried to march to the offices of the electoral authority from various points of the capital.
The district is holding a special runoff election between Ms Handel and Democratic candidate Jon Ossoff to fill the seat left vacant when Republican Tom Price was appointed by Donald Trump to be the Secretary of Health and Human services.
