The Provisional Electoral Council Wants to Strengthen Its Decentralized Structures

In a note made public on August 25, 2025, the Provisional Electoral Council launches a recruitment notice for all citizens interested in the electoral process. The objective is to strengthen its decentralized structures in the country's 10 departments.

“As part of strengthening its decentralized structures and with a view to updating the electoral register, the PEC is launching a notice to recruit electoral register agents for its offices in the 10 departments,” the note stated.

The PEC intends to recruit agents for its departmental and communal offices, and polling centers.

The recruited agents will have as main responsibilities: providing technical and technological support to the BEDs and BECs in operations related to the register; updating citizens' electoral addresses in the database; producing periodic reports on update activities, among others.

It should be noted that this council's notice comes at a time when gangs continue to intensify their abuses in several regions of the country. In Mirebalais, the patronal feast did not take place last weekend due to gang violence. In Kenskoff and several other metropolitan regions, the VIV coalition is gaining ground.

The question arises: will there truly be an election in the country this year, considering the rise of violence in Haiti? Only time will tell!
