Caracas, Dec 8 (Venezuelanalysis.com) Supporters of President Chavez came out in big numbers on Saturday December 6 to celebrate Chavez's fifth year in office and to celebrate what they claim is another electoral victory for the Venezuelan leader.

Chavez won the 1999 elections with the biggest percentage of votes in the history of the country's democratic rule. After a new constitution was drafted by an elected Constituency Assembly, and approved on a national referendum, Chavez won again in new elections. He is half way through his 6 year term.

The march started at Caracas' far east side, passed through upper-class neighboorhoods where anti-Chavez sentiment runs high, and ended at the downtown Bolivar avenue, where Chavez gave a speech.
