election day in haiti

Posted on February 7, 2006 | Filed Under general 

Read these accounts of Haiti’s election day today …

Masses of Haitian voters overwhelm election workers (Canadian Press)

Chaos, Confusion on Election Day (Washington Post)

A day not free of problems, but a day that saw voters turn out in large numbers and remain largely patient and peaceful. A day of hope, and I pray a day of new beginnings for Haiti.
