Jean Louis Robinson requires the Electoral Commission’s president to step down

During a press conference held on December 23rd at the Carlton Hotel, Jean Louis Robinson recalled the evidences of electoral frauds and pressures put by the ruling power for the sake of influencing votes. He enumerated what happened in Marovoay, in the country’s central western part, where ballot boxes stuffed with ballots fraudulently marked in advance have been busted; In the central eastern region of Ambatondrazaka, a very special plane conveyed the same type of purposely stuffed ballot boxes as well. “We are getting the necessary dossiers ready to fill charges at the Special Electoral Court” added the presidential candidate supported by the Ravalomanana political sphere, who keeps claiming presidential election’s second round victory to be his. Lawsuits at the Penal Court are also on schedule. For the time being, temporary results released by the Electoral Commission from the muster of 6 000 polling stations’ reports out of 20 000 grant a slight  52% advantage to the transitional leader’s minion Hery Rajaonarimampianina
