The G8 presidential candidates, standing for 49.8% of votes cast, issued a group statement, criticizing the preliminary results as anti-democratic due to suspicions of fraudulent activity, including missing ballots. They say CEP should have organized a non-partisan investigative commission to uncover the many instances of voter fraud, including ballot stuffing, to produce an accurate count.

The G8 said the preliminary results harken back to the time when ". . . official election of dictatorial regimes organized under the leadership of the Ministry of the Interior . . ." posed the threat of destabilizing the island.

The election results of October 25th's presidential balloting are said to be fraudulent, Jude Celestin a run-off candidate calling results a "farce". Other candidates believe this as well, among them Jean Charles Moise, Maryse Narcisse, and Jean Baptiste.

Celestin and Baptist urged their supporters to mobilize and demonstrate peacefully to coerce election officials to do a re-count. Narcisse believes the election was a coup to guarantee Martelly's pick, Jovenel Moise, would take office and continue the dictatorial policies of the Martelly government. But the international community believes the October 25th balloting went off without a hitch and encourages Haitians to remain calm.
