photos - elections - part 6

The people were met. This young guy wanted his picture taken with the guys Bertrand, Amos and Claudin. You might notice that this young guy is holding a "joint" (marijuana cigarette). This is what happens to you when you smoke "wacky tobaccy!" There were lots of police, UN, international observers and what should have been there was the DEA!

The Lycee area had lots of people!

People were shouting support for their favorite candidate. They were also shouting that they couldn't vote because their names weren't on the voting list!

The guy with the black t-shirt has "Ann al vote" on the back of it. Translated into english it is "Lets go vote!" Lot of people sure tried that day.... but for some they didn't end up voting.

People searched in vain to see if their name was included on the voting lists posted outside on the front wall of the Lycee. You can see a lot of people were looking for their names! I took lots of photos of the day's events. I'll post them in groups of 30 every couple of days. Pray for all the troubles here in Haiti.
