The HVM party has decided not to participate in the next senatorial elections scheduled for December 11.
The Hery Vaovao Ho An’i Madagasikara (HVM) party has decided. He will not participate in the next senatorial elections scheduled for December 11. The decision made public by the party reflects a deep distrust of the current electoral process. “” We have noticed several irregularities. We filed complaints during the legislative elections, but without follow -up. While we have noted anomalies in the electoral process. We have hoped that the electoral commission rectifies its shot, that the government takes lessons and that the HCC is adopting a new attitude. But no change has been observed so far “, Hammered Désiré Rasambany, secretary general of the HVM.
Priorities
According to him, the electoral framework remains incomplete and vitiated. “” The electoral college is not as complete to move towards the senatorial elections “, He insisted, before recalling that his party has candidates for senatorials but demands” a serene framework for the elections “. The secretary general of the HVM also denounces the priorities of the Independent National Electoral Commission (CENI). “” It seems to give all its urgency to the organization of the senatorial election scheduled for December 11, but it retains silence on the review of the municipal elections canceled by the justice system, those affected by the death of mayors in office or those where mayors have been condemned “, He castigates.
Beyond this boycott, the HVM announces a concerted offensive. “” We will mobilize the other opposition parties in this direction “Said Désiré Rasambany. A meeting of the Firaisankina platform, bringing together five political parties, is scheduled for this day. Among the figures expected around the table are Marc Ravalomanana and Siteny Randrianasoloniiko. The question of participation in senatorials will dominate the debates.
Overwhelming victory
Opposite, the presidential camp, sure of its advantage, advances without trembling. With a prowled electoral apparatus and a balance of power which is favorable to him, he is preparing to win the bet. Observers do not exclude an overwhelming victory for the ruling movement, revealing a quasi -monocolor Senate, dressed in the “orange” colors of the diet. A Senate dominated by a single movement would once again raise the question of institutional balance in a country where the opposition denounces a progressive locking of democratic mechanisms.
