| One political party in Haiti's recent elections had Proverbs 6:6-9 as its campaign slogan: "Go to the ant, you sluggard." |
Haiti's parliamentary elections happened on Sunday, August 9. As expected, there were some problems, including a voting centers forced to close because of acts of violence and several deaths. However, it seems that the majority of the voting centers were open and had voting materials at their disposition. Given the fact that the vote was delayed for over four years, it seems that Sunday's vote would have to be considered a success. Election results are supposed to be posted on the 19th. However, in the past such deadlines are not often respected. Please pray for peace on the day of the publication of results. Typically demonstrations and blockades are more likely when the results are published as disgruntled political partisans voice their dissatisfaction with the process.
