Alleged election fraud in the case of Haiti's new President

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Several presidential candidates are rejecting the election results in Haiti over alleged fraud. 12 out of 19 candidates banded together and accused the incumbent, "President Rene Preval of trying to steal the election and install his chosen candidate, Jude Celestin," according to the Washington Post.

However, their provisional electoral council acknowledges the vote and claim there was not the widespread fraud that displeased candidates are complaining about.

The Wall Street Journal r
eported that if the election officials validate the vote, it will most likely result in a race between the top 2 candidates.
