Blocked candidates could tarnish Haiti vote

Haitian President Rene Preval could see his economic projects and constitutional reform emerge as the big winners when long-delayed Senate elections are finally held on Sunday.
A Senate majority for his Lespwa party, which has a candidate running for every seat but one, would help Preval achieve a long sought-after reform of Haiti's 1987 constitution, increasing executive powers and allowing presidents to seek consecutive five-year terms.

It would also build support for Preval's economic programs, meant to relieve poverty in a nation where 80 percent of people live on less than $2 a day.
But Sunday's vote could be more notable for who is not running.
Haiti's provisional electoral council disqualified all candidates from former President Jean-Bertrand Aristide's still-popular Fanmi Lavalas party - a fact that may cause unrest or tarnish election results.
Some in Port-au-Prince were worried about their safety on election day, which has long been associated with violence and intimidation in Haiti.
"Today is my last day on the street. I'm going home until Monday," said Jean Rolin, a 35-year-old plumber who did not plan to vote.

Total of 79 candidates will vie for 12 Senate seats. With races involving five to 18 candidates each, most are expected to end in run-offs between the top two vote-getters. Preval's party already holds six of 18 seats in the upper chamber.

Security forces including 9,000 U.N. peacekeepers are prepared for protests by Lavalas supporters and others who have threatened to disrupt voting because their candidates were banned from the ballot.
Both Aristide and his former party still enjoy widespread support, especially among Haiti's urban poor.

Preval, who was prime minister under Aristide, was elected president in 2006 with strong Lavalas backing. But Aristide's supporters now consider Preval a traitor for failing to return the exiled president to Haiti.

Lavalas petitioned the electoral council to allow its candidates to run for Senate, but its case was weakened by a split in the party. Council President Frantz-Gerard Verret said the candidates were disqualified because they failed to produce documents signed by Aristide, the party's leader who was flown to exile in Africa on a U.S. plane during a 2004 rebellion.

"This is essentially a political decision," University of Virginia Haiti expert Robert Fatton Jr. said, referring to the council's ruling. "All the parties who made this decision are essentially united against Lavalas and want to marginalize Lavalas as far as they can."

The electoral council, not the government, had a sole role in approving candidates, Preval said Thursday at a press conference with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
"We are doing everything in our power to ensure that the government is neutral in the running of the elections," Preval said. He plans to return from the Summit of the Americas in Trinidad to vote in person on Sunday.

Clinton praised Haiti's electoral process as free and fair, and called it a model to be emulated by nearby Cuba.

But the U.S. embassy in Port-au-Prince joined Canada and the Organization of American States in voicing concern when Lavalas was excluded from the ballot in February. U.N. Security Council delegates in March praised Lavalas for continuing to contest the decision.

Armed U.N. peacekeepers escorted ballots and voting materials to polling places in the capital on Saturday, and international election monitors fanned out to countryside precincts.
The elections were originally scheduled for late 2007, but canceled after the electoral council was dissolved amid infighting and an alleged assassination attempt on one of its members. Riots then toppled Haiti's government and four successive hurricanes led to nearly 800 deaths last year.

Twelve seats are now vacant after 10 senators' terms expired, one died in a car crash and another resigned.

Revelasyon

Zafe suiv mo dod la se bobinn. Ayisien lan cite yo renmen vote pou lajan ak bouyon.

mesye an nou antann nou

Revelatyon di ke Preval se sel presidan ayisyen ki ka voyaje lè li vle sa ki fè sa?e byen mon frè se paske mesye rad jonn yo pa a la mode ankor fisi yo chanje zepol.se pousa mwen te di ke MINUSTAH a se yon mal nesesè.Epi tou Preval sapare gato ak tout ti grangou yo.se sel pep la ki pa jwen.e ki ap mouri ak grangou kloroks.ou pa wè premye jes li te fè se achte machinn ba depite ,ba diplomat bonus ;li pratike yon politik de lesse grenen li mete Micha gaillard ak Voctor benoit nan komisyon.Cineas kom gwo duvalyerist rete nan pos li, Ray Joseph jwen sa li te beswen pou yo ka kite li fini manda li.li konprann yon sel dwet pa manje kalalou epi li di pep la naje poun soti apre li finn nofraje bato lavalas la.zak yon ajan doub.ou byen zak yon plitisyen entelijan.

Pou mwen si Preval ta chache genyen yon majorité nan palman an LEGALMAN san fo elektyon poul chanje konstitutyon malatchyong lan se pat yon move bagay ,gade ki jan san pep la ap koule pou gremesi jodi dimanch la eske li pa genyen rezon lè li di ke konstitutyon 1987 se yon sous denstabilite?Eske se vre ayiti beswen yon pouvwa ekzekitif a 2 tet yon palman bicameral nan yon peyi kote 60 % bidjè fonktyonman peyi ya depann de led etranje?Si se pou preval vinn presidan a vi ke li fè elimine pati lavalas e byen fok li raple l ke MINUSTAH li menm pa a vi.

genyen yon lot bagay ke mwen pa renmen nan sa ke Revelatyon di ya se kose Chavez se ti sousou.se pa premye fwa ke yon lidè yon peyi ofri yon branch dolivye ba yon moun.Personelman mwen pa kwè ke Chavez beswen Obama ni Obama beswen Chavez.men te repwoche li lè li te di ke Obama se yon iyoran .e Obama an tan ke yon nonm ki cool pase yon byè prestij fout Chavez yon repons diplomatik lè li pote liv la ba li;li di li te kwè se yon liv Chavez ekri ke li te pote pouli paske li te pral ba Chavez kek liv pa li tou.se yon jan pou Obama di Chavez pale m de wou?ah ah ah ah mon chè jenn nonm saa fè mwen renmen li plis de jou an jou.toutan ryan san fè kolè li mete enpertinan nan wol yo.

ki bel fanm nwa saa ke Preval ap fikse sou tab la.Mwen pa kwè se fanm premye Minis Trinidadyen an ;Preval genyen movez abitid saa wi.Mwen sonje li tal jamayik epi jel se nan tete premye Minis ou byen yon gwo zotobre ki te vinn resevwa li ke li rete.Mon chè Preval se yon nonm ki konn limit li.si nou wè li pa pale paske nanpren moun ki pale kreyol ni franse sou tab la.byen ke li ka di de mo an panyol ak presidan Chili ya.men si troul pa fon e byen pito li fèmen bouch li tan yo di li di bagay ke li pat vle di tankou sa ki te pase Sendomeng lan.

mwen dakor pou pep la chita sou blok glas li.paske elektyon saa se pa anyen li pral regle pou pep la vre.konbyen lwa ke pale mentè yo vote pou soulaje pep la?pouki rezon pou pep la al vote pou yon kor initil?moun vote pou yon rezon men an ayiti jan ke neg yo ap separe gato antre yo tankis ke grangou kloroks ap koupe trip pep la poukisa pou yo al vote ya menm ?.se san wont ki pou al patisipe nan risib saa.epi al riske vi yo nan majigridi mwen dakor ak jenn nonm lan ki di li ap rantre lakay li li pap soti pa zavan lendi ; sim te an ayiti se nan morn wo mwen tap monte yon kote pa genyen biro vot menm.neg yo separe 16 milyon dola epi menm rejis pa genyen nan biro vot yo.ala kote genyen dwet long papa.
