2000 Haitian presidential election

Presidential elections were held in Haiti on 26 November 2000.[1] The opposition parties, organised into the recently created Convergence Démocratique, boycotted the election after disputing the results of the parliamentary elections. The result was a landslide victory for Jean-Bertrand Aristide, who received 91.7% of the vote with a turnout of around 50%.[2]
