ADVERTISEMENTAfter developing several electoral calendars, the CEP set the first round of voting in presidential and legislative elections, as well as for a constitutional referendum, for November 7. The second round of voting was scheduled for January 23, 2022, in conjunction with municipal and local elections. But Prime Minister Ariel Henry published a decree Monday announcing the CEP members had been dismissed. The elections and referendum had already been postponed twice due to the coronavirus pandemic.
