#4114: Haitian Elections: Amy Wilentz /LA Times..a comment (fwd)
From:TrnslatrNC@aol.com
Thanks, Amy, for that article, generally enlightening. However, the comment
on the lack of a need for a runoff election is shocking, coming from her.
Doesn't she know that there is a requirement for a runoff election for those
positions that don't get a majority of the valid votes cast? According to the
observers, there are many Lavalas candidates (and perhaps others) that didn't
get that majority, so there will (must) be runoff elections, and that is
proper. They are scheduledd, I think, for June 25.
