Haiti - Elections : The United States supports the right of the Haitian people
The United States urges all Haitians, including all political leaders and their supporters, to express themselves peacefully now and to work through Haiti's electoral contestation process to address any electoral concerns. The 2010 elections represent a critical test of whether the Haitian people will determine their destiny through their vote, and it would be regrettable that violence would mar this process.
The United States supports the right of the Haitian people to free, fair, and transparent elections. The United States has called upon the Government of Haiti, the Conseil Electoral Provisoire, and all political forces in the country to work through the electoral process to ensure that the will of the people is reflected in the outcome of this election. The United States reiterates that it stands ready to work with the Government of Haiti and its international partners to support electoral results that reflect the will of the Haitian people.
