Merely the leading candidates’ score sheets had to suffer some slight changes within 14 days compared to temporary results, namely due to the invalidation of some thousands of votes as a result of acknowledged frauds, and charges pressed at the Special Electoral Court. Temporary results used to grant 21.10% of votes to Jean Louis Robinson. Now he is endowed with 21.16%. Hery Rajaonarimampianina is the one paying the price for the Special Electoral Court’s ordered invalidation of 5574 votes, ending up with 15.85% instead of the more comfortable 15.93%. The presidential election’ second round will, as expected, oppose on December 20th a couple of presidential candidates respectively backed by the two main rival parties, whose dispute has been entailing the long lasting Malagasy political crisis since 2009. Hery Rajaonarimampiana and his makeshift party are the hope of Andry Rajoelina and his transitional clique, while the AVANA party’s candidate Jean Louis Robinson has the whole of the political sphere led by Marc Ravalomanana from his South African land of exile behind him. The Special Electoral Court rejected each and every request for the disqualification of these two candidates, let alone those calling upon the blunt cancellation of October 25th’s presidential election’s first round.
