It may or may not be fair (and our thoughts on the enigma that is Kagame and modern Rwanda shall wait for another time), but it is certain that Paul Kagame will win the Rwandan elections this August. So certain, in fact, that the head of the electoral commission has decided to skip the formalities and schedule the announcement of the election results two days before the election actually takes place. That’s confidence.
PS. Thanks to the Democracy Watch – Rwanda 2010 blog for the tip.
Hey, check this out….this is the English version of the Calendar and I cant see anything that says president will be announced before elections……..http://www.comelena.gov.rw/PdfDocs/PELECTIONSCAL_ENG.pdf
Good spot – looks like they’ve managed to fix it on the English version. On the French, it promised election results on the 7th instead of the 17th of August.
