Haitian presidential election: vote-counting continues

-Contributed by Erwin Cifuentes. Ballots from Tuesday’s first round of Haitian presidential elections continue to be counted under the auspices of United Nations troops. Though the secretary-generals of the UN and Organization of American States praised the massive turnout and relative lack of violence, four people were killed on Election Day and some voters complained that they were unable to cast their votes.
