 The election drew a voter turnout of more than 60%, and the FL won a virtual sweep.However, the elections were marred by controversy in the Senate race over the calculation of whether Senate candidates had achieved the majority required to avoid a run-off election (in Haiti, seats where no candidate wins an absolute majority of votes cast has to enter a second-round run-off election).The validity of the Electoral Council's post-ballot calculations of whether a majority had been attained was disputed.
