PRD and PRSC representatives are describing the decision by a special Senate commission to maintain that Central Electoral Board’s (JCE) originally planned budget as absurd, an abuse of power and a violation of the Constitution. PRD General Secretary Orlando Jorge Mera said that Congress can’t decide to give the JCE more money if a second round of voting in the 2008 elections is needed and added that the second round of voting is contemplated in the Constitution.
