HAITI: CEP under growing pressure
Haiti’s provisional electoral council (CEP) is facing increasing pressure to provide clarification regarding the 25 October first-round presidential election, second-round national legislative elections, and mayoral elections. A string of damning reports by local and international electoral observers, together with calls not only from the opposition presidential candidates but the Church and private sector, are raising further doubts about the CEP’s handling of the electoral process ahead of the 27 December presidential run-off between Jovenel Moïse, of President Michel Martelly’s Parti Haïtien Têt Kalé (PHTK) and Jude Célestin, of Ligue Alternative pour le Progrès et l’Emancipation Haïtienne (Lapeh).
