Letter of the Party vérité :

"Port-au-Prince on October 24

Mr. Léopold Berlanger Junior

President of the Provisional Electoral Council

In its offices

Mr President,

The incident that occurred at the Saint Jean Bosco Voting Centre in Cap Haitien on the day after the elections, whose report was drawn up by the Peace Judge of the South Section and in the presence of two national observers and the press in general, during which ballot papers were found in bulk, signed and annotated in favor of a candidate, and other blank ballots signed by members of the BV, raises relevant questions about the transparency, the credibility of the electoral process In the North department and may lead us to hypothesize that the same observation is made in other parts of the country.

As a result, the political platform Vérité takes the opportunity to request from the institution a comparison, on the basis of sampling, of the lists of 'émargement' with the databases of the national identification office in order to verify and validate the signatures of the voters concerned. Moreover, it requires that this operation be carried out before the publication of the partial results in order to exclude the fraudulent ballots who would have slipped into the ballot boxes and prevent reactions of dissatisfaction of voters who would then be entitled to believe that their right was knowingly violated.

Hoping that you will understand the merits of this approach for the good and the triumph of democracy [...]

Joseph Génard

National Coordinator"
