Haiti - FLASH : The CEP has just published the revised electoral calendar in the Moniteur 25/12/2025 06:08:54
Following the publication of the Electoral Decree in Special Issue 66 of Le Moniteur on Monday, December 1st by the Presidential Transitional Council (CPT), the Provisional Electoral Council (CEP), within the framework of its mission, proceeded to publish the electoral calendar in the official gazette, Le Moniteur, indicating the key stages from the submission of candidacies to the proclamation of the final results. Key dates include the start of the election campaign on May 19, running until August 28, 2026, and the first round of voting (legislative and presidential) on August 30. The first round results will be published on October 3rd, 2026, and the second round on December 6, 2026. The final results of the second round will be published on January 7, 2027. The Electoral Council also emphasizes that adherence to these deadlines is contingent upon the following two (2) achievements: 1. Acceptable Security Environment: To organize elections throughout the country, the Provisional Electoral Council must have access to and operate in all municipalities and communal sections throughout the entire process. Specifically, it must be able to move about safely and work day and night in all Departmental Electoral Offices (BEDs), Communal Electoral Offices (BECs), and polling stations. The Provisional Electoral Council (CEP) notes that "A total of 23 communes, spread across the departments of West (12), Artibonite (8), Center (3), and Northwest (1), are currently under the control of armed bandits. [...] The current security situation has major implications for electoral logistics." 2. Availability of Financial Resources The budget is a crucial pillar of the electoral process. Organizing elections in Haiti involves simultaneously managing multiple emergencies that require swift action in all regions of the country. The electoral institution must have its own financial resources to manage certain activities and unforeseen events.

Two major additions were made without the CEP's consent or approval. The first specifies that a person cannot be a candidate for elected office if they are subject to UN sanctions (Articles 52, 53, 74, 84, 98). The second amendment refers to 10 Departmental Vote Tabulation Offices (BTVD) art. 30, 27.2, 253, 255. SL/ HaitiLibre
