Political parties . We will see what becomes of the vow to participate following the first round. Hopefully serious actors will continue to engage. But will haitis populous known as voters engage . No one is trumpeting a Voter Participation of 18 according to the cep as a step towards democracy. That would certainly be an exercise in lipstick.
