Presidential elections were also held. A run-off was originally scheduled for 16 January as no candidate received 50% of the votes cast.[2] However, it was postponed until 20 March 2011 as election officials said they could not hold the runoff while awaiting results from re-polling,[3] with results expected on 31 March.
Official results, announced on 21 April 2011, showed Michel Martelly defeating Mirlande Manigat in the second round of the presidential election.[4][5]
