03/12/2015 11:35:37

In a press note from the Youth Observatory Haitian (OJH), platform bringing together twenty youth movements of civil society, recalls that throughout the electoral process, young people have committed among other : as candidates, as voters, or as observers at various levels of the machine, to contribute to the success of these elections. Today, youth represent the majority of the population involved in street demonstrations around the country.

As part of its advocacy mission, of training and youth mobilization, the Youth Observatory Haitian feels legitimate to takes position around the electoral process.

"The Observatory doubt the reliability of the results published by the CEP, which certainly do not reflect the outcome of the elections, taking into account the samples analyzed by the BCEN on the one hand and criticizes the incredulous attitude of the Electoral Council, which can only lead the country to chaos on the other.

[...] With the objective to save the process by restoring the truth of the ballot boxes, so the people's will, the Youth Observatory Haitian recommends that to the Head of Government inter alia :

To create a National Evaluation Commission (CENI), which will have access to all the minutes and ballots, necessary means to do its work and make recommendations that can be extended to all levels of the process. It will also have the mission to work together with the CEP until the installation of the next elected.

[...] The OJH recommends that the Provisional Electoral Council (CEP) in order to save the electoral process :

to suspend the entire electoral process (electoral campaign and registrations of representatives) ; to called back the final presidential results published November 24, 2015, without checking all the minutes. ; to exclude or punish all candidates and employees of the CEP involved in cases of massive fraud and other irregularities or all candidates in whose favor they have been made; to change the electoral calendar in order to ensure a full assessment of the process; to implement the recommendations of the Independent National Evaluation Commission (CENI).

[...] To replace the President of the CEP, Pierre Louis Opont, by another representative in the Council"

Note that the OJH, wants that the next parliamentary session takes place on the second Monday of January, that the departure of President Michel J. Martelly takes place February 7, 2016 and that the next elected President is installed 14 May 2016 "Prime Minister Paul Evans, will be responsible for the interim from February 7 to May 14, 2016."
