CARACAS - President Hugo Chávez won his fourth presidential bid in eight years on Sunday, defeating career politician Manuel Rosales and boosting his ''21st Century Socialism,'' which includes widespread social projects, increasing relations with countries such as Cuba and Iran, and diminishing relations with the United States.
The National Electoral Council, or CNE, announced at 9 p.m. EST that Chávez had received 61 percent of the vote and Rosales 38 percent, with 78 percent of the votes counted.
