Politics: Haiti
Haiti’s election authority gave political parties until Sunday 8 November 2026 to register their members and supporters online. The deadline sits in the Provisional Electoral Council’s (CEP) official calendar, published on 28 October.
The same calendar sets the first round of presidential and legislative voting for 18 July 2027. Haiti’s election has already been postponed once, so both steps matter.
