Haiti Elections Postponed For Fourth Time

HeadlineJan 03, 2006

In Haiti, national elections have been postponed for a fourth time. After original plans for a vote last October, the election had most recently been set for January 8th. The delay all but confirms Haiti will be unable to have a new government in place by February 7, the date specified by the constitution. Haiti is holding its first elections since the February 2004 overthrow of the government of President Jean Bertrand Aristide.
