One day after the November 16 election, the political class is trying to learn the lessons of what happened. The antagonism between Andry Rajoelina and the other candidates is even greater than before. Candidate No. 3 is very calm because all indicators show that he is heading towards victory. His opponents do not want to resign themselves to this entirely predictable scenario and have decided to continue their protest action. The meetings they held yesterday were intended to refine their strategy. The phrase that was repeated several times is: “ the struggle continues ! ».
A protest that will surely resume
Andry Rajoelina’s supporters are raising their heads at the moment. The partial results received by the CENI show that he is well ahead of the vote. The speed with which they come back from the CNRVs leaves observers speechless. We are far from the slowness observed during previous presidential elections. The president of CENI assured that the scores of the first round will be published on November 24. The opposition was not surprised by the unfolding of events. She even welcomed the scale of the abstention, but she notes that the planned scenario is coming true. The comments made by its leaders still show a certain disappointment, but they must now move on to another stage. They need to think about readjusting their strategy to deal with the current situation. From what they said yesterday, we must especially remember their desire not to give up and to denounce all the anomalies that they observed. Those who share their beliefs are waiting to see how they will mobilize their supporters. The interim president had already announced that he would not tolerate any unrest. The resumption of demonstrations is certainly envisaged, but the authorities reinforced by the turn of events will crack down and take more gloves to repress.
