photos - various - part 6

This man is Jude Celestin and he is the presidential candidate for the Inite party; the party of the Haitian president, Rene Preval.

This house is the headquarters of Jude Celestin and the Inite party.

The front door was damaged....

People were angry that the CEP had Jude Celestin in the number 2 position. I don't know anyone who voted for him. The popular vote was for Michel Martelly. The people of Port-au-Prince held one large temper tantrum and 3 days of chaos erupted on the street. Protesters entered the compound and set fire to the headquarters of Jude Celestin.

Only the cement wall structure remains. After a review the CEP now concludes that Jude Celestin should be eliminated and Michel Martelly advances to the second round of the elections to be held on March 20th. Michel Martelly will face off against Mirlande Manigat the leading vote getter of the first round. Go Mirlande! I think a woman should run the country! ... But I won't tell too many people this.
