The secretary general of the Partido Revolucionario Dominicano, Licenciado, Hatuey de Camps, has suggested that the JCE contract a foreign company to audit the padron electoral., or voters list. He said that in Mexico this was undertaken by a Canadian company with satisfactory results. The PRSC has protested against some 75,000 alleged irregularities, principally involving people of Haitian descent but claiming Dominican nationality. The PLD presidential candidate also visited the JCE last week with a list of 700,000 possible irregularities on the voters’ list. The president of the Senate, Amable Aristy Castro (PRSC) says that he has proof in his hands that more than 5,000 people have been issued Dominican birth certificates when, in fact, they are really Haitians.
