Dear Friends,

The Haiti Justice Update sent on Wednesday did not adequately acknowledge the problems with Haiti’s November 20 elections. Although we do believe the voting was an improvement over the October 25, 2015 elections, there were still significant problems with the voting that call the results into question, as we have documented on our blog, twitter feeds and media interviews, including:

  • a distressingly low turnout, of 21%. The turnout is evidence of both short-term problems with this year’s registration and voting, and long-term effects of what my colleague Mario Joseph calls “voter exclusion” that we have documented and advocated against in elections in 2000, 2006, 2010 and 2015. For a comparison, this year’s declared winner, Jovenel Moise, won 595,000 votes, while in 2000 the winning candidate, Jean-Bertrand Aristide received 2,600,000 votes (over 2 ½ times the total for the top 4 candidates this year);

  • problems with people who were registered to vote, many who even had their names posted on the lists outside the voting center, but were told inside that their name was not on the list, or were referred to voting centers far from their home. The telephone lines for voters to report and correct these problems functioned poorly all day;

  • problems with the voting tabulation process, including unexplained delays, and the refusal of 3 of the 9 Electoral Council members to sign the results;

  • marked ballots discovered on the street; and

  • a high number of votes excluded for technical reasons.

These problems have generated substantial opposition to the election results in Haiti. There have been daily demonstrations in the streets, and reports of illegal and brutal police responses to the protests. The second, third and fourth place finishers under the official results have rejected them, and have filed formal challenges.

At IJDH, we believe that a prompt, credible and thorough investigation of these problems needs to be made before any election results are accepted, and will continue to advocate to that end.

I would like to thank IJDH’s friends who brought this mistake to our attention, and to apologize to everyone for our failure to live up to our standards for credibility and reliability. Amongst a rush of work around the cholera case developments, we did not follow our usual review procedures, and I take personal responsibility for that.

Please let us know if you have any questions or comments, and please follow our ongoing election rights advocacy!

Sincerely,

COMMENT: HAITIAN-TRUTH.ORG

If I remember rightly, Concannon had to register, with the Justice Department, as an agent for Aristide’s government. Rumor says, Aristide used to pay him an ongoing fee/wage/stipend to promote Lavalas.
My goodness, me!!

He has Aristide getting 2,600,000 votes in the 2000 election.

Remember folks, 2000 was the election in which exit polls showed Lavalas losing at a ratio of 3-2.

At this point, PNH officers were observed, by foreign election observers, carrying ballot boxes from the voting places. Then, these ballot boxes were photographed, by the international media (Normally Lavalas supporters) being stuffed with Lavalas ballots.

The discarded ones were left scattered on the street.

When CEP President, Manus, refused to sign off on the crime, Aristide tried to have him killed. Manus was smuggled out of the country to Washington. Other CEP members went into hiding.

Such was the 2000 election crime that all International Observers were withdrawn from Haiti.

Aristide held the 2000 Presidential vote, without observers, without voting places (he had threatened to burn any building used for the election) and no voters.

Some suggest 20,000 voted nationwide while others suggest it was more like 2,000.

In effect, there was no election.

Aristide then modestly declared himself President, with a landslide 99% of the 20,000 maximum votes cast.

2,600,000!!!!

There hasn’t been any election, in Haiti’s short Democratic history, that has totaled this number.

Most times, 5% would be an honest count, but the International Community lies to make the process look better.  But they would never have the nerve to suggest anyone ever got 2,600,000 votes.

And Lavalas has never been barred from the process. Lavalas has stayed out of the game, to avoid the humiliation they experienced on November 20, 2016.

SHAME ON YOU.

  1. I was in Haiti to observe the 2000 elections

    I arrived shortly after Jacques Dominique was assasinated by Aristide henchmen. If Concannon would like to dispute the facts in my comment, he can sue and we will see what comes out in Deposition.

    Aristide and Preval threatened Manus, the CEP chairman, with death if he did not validate the results of Aristide’s stuffed ballot boxes. I have photographs of police taking the boxes from some voting locations. These boxes were taken to police cassernes where they were emptied and stuffed with Lavalas ballots. The othe were left blowing in the wind, outside the casserne I visited.

    Manus hid until he was smuggled out of the country.

    I left 2 weeks later.

    The final presidential vote was a farce with absolutely no one voting. Aristide threatened to kill anyone visiting the voting stations because he knew he would lose as he was losing in May, 2000.

    His win was a sad joke and he managed to hold ont until rrmoved in February 2000 evn as he ordered the La Scerie Massacre.

    Aristide is a killer who should be behind bars.
