Madagascar's Independent National Election Commission (CENIT) on Monday urged the presidential run-off and legislative election candidates to respect the electoral code. Jean Louis Robinson and Hery Rajaonarimampianina will compete for the top post of the Indian Ocean island country on Dec. 20, when 2,052 candidates will also take part in the legislative elections. The candidates and their supporters should respect the electoral code, CENIT President Atallah Beatrice said at a workshop held Monday in the capital Antananarivo in the presence of election officials from Burkina Faso, Cameroon, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Mali. The CENIT president also announced that the single ballot to be used on Dec. 20 will arrive on Tuesday. The southern African bloc SADC has offered 2.2 million U. S. dollars in support for the electoral process.
