Jorge Giménez Ochoa participated in the 2021 elections for the presidency of the Venezuelan Football Federation, sharing the same candidacy with Pedro Infante. Infante, a former sports deputy minister of the government and a former official of the FVF, was one of the reasons for FIFA's intervention in 2020, as this entity prohibits government interference in national federations.
The Giménez and Infante candidacy won with 57 votes out of 92 cast in the elections on May 28, 2021, following a period of instability in the organization due to allegations of irregularities. Jorge Silva, their opponent, expressed dissatisfaction with the disqualification of some delegates for the vote. Giménez took office for the 2021-2025 term on June 7.
