This file contains election results for the Haitian Chamber of Deputies for the elections held in 2015 through 2017. This file has a format different from many others in Election Passport.
Haiti uses a two-round system in single-member constituencies to elect the Chamber. The first round of elections was held in August 2015 but the electoral commission annulled results in 23 of the 119 constituencies. Reruns of the first round in these constituencies were held simultaneously with the second round of elections in October 2015.
In some cases, the electoral commission made a post-first round decision to exclude candidates who had made it into the second round, and other candidates who received fewer votes were substituted. Comments are included when this occurred in CV1 and CV2.
No second round was held in ten constituencies due to first-round victories. Two second-round contests held in October were either annulled or delayed. These rerun second-round contests, along with the second rounds for the constituencies that had to rerun their first rounds in October 2015, were held in November 2016.
Haitian election results are incomplete with votes from some polling stations excluded from the returns in most constituencies. While the electoral commission never received the results in some cases, other results were intentionally excluded intentionally, often due to suspicion of corruption or other issues.

Month of the first-round election. 1. January 2. February 3. March 4. April 5. May 6. June 7. July 8. August 9. September 10. October 11. November 12. December
PVI1 Procès-Verbaux Included (First Round)
The number of procès-verbaux (polling place reports of election results) included in the calculation of the first-round vote totals recorded in CV1, VV1, BLANK1 and NULL1.
PV1 Procès-Verbaux (First Round)
The number of procès-verbaux (polling place reports of election results) that would have been reported had results from all polling places been reported and included the calculation of vote totals by the electoral commission.
DEF1 Preliminary or Final Results (First Round)
Indicates whether votes reported in CV1, VV1, BLANK1 and NULL1 were based on the official preliminary or final results.
0. Preliminary results. 1. Final results identical to the preliminary results. 2. Final results that differ from the preliminary results by less than 10% in the number of valid votes (VV1). 3. Final results that differ from the preliminary results by more than 10% in the number of valid votes (VV1).
The available final first-round results from the election commission include only the results for candidates that were elected or made it into the second round. As a result, vote totals for most candidates are based on preliminary results. When the final results for the candidates who were elected or made it into the second round are identical to the preliminary first-round results, it seems a safe assumption that the preliminary and final results are also identical for other candidates. This was the case in the vast majority of constituencies. In some constituencies, the electoral commission excluded procès- verbaux from the final results that had been included in the preliminary results. In these cases, the preliminary results are reported for all candidates but a comment is included reporting the revised totals and the number of procès-verbaux on which they were based for the two most successful candidates in PVI1, PV1, DEF1 and CV1.
CV1 Candidate Votes (First Round)

VV1 Valid Votes (First Round)

In the rare cases where the total number of votes cast for all candidates in a constituency does not equal the reported number of valid votes, it is noted in a comment. In cases in which results for some candidates are based on final results and others are based on preliminary results and the number of procès-verbaux used to calculate each was different, the number of valid votes reported may differ across candidates.
BLANK1 Blank Votes (First Round)
The total number of blank votes in the first-round election. In cases in which results for some candidates are based on final results but others are based on preliminary results, and the number of procès-verbaux used to calculate each was different, the number of blank votes reported may differ across candidates.
NULL1 Invalid Votes (First Round)
The total number of invalid or spoilt votes in the first-round election. In cases in which results for some candidates are based on final results but others are based on preliminary results, and the number of procès-verbaux used to calculate each was different, the number of invalid or spoilt votes reported may differ across candidates.
