Passing Marks for Congo Election
The
Carter Center today released its evaluation of the August 20 elections in DR Congo:
"The Carter Center did not find evidence of widespread or systematic manipulation. The Center concludes that the presidential results announced August 20 are credible; legislative results, on the whole, are also credible, but cannot be validated in detail because of the shortcomings outlined in
this statement."
Also,
we reported earlier that Atlanta is expecting a Chinese consulate? Now the news is,
maybe not.
