Dr. Sabato is currently working on two books about the 2004 election - one to be published ahead of election day as a guide to voters, and one analyzing the election results in early 2005. Both books will be published by Longman. Dr. Sabato is also regularly updating "Sabato's Crystal Ball," a critically acclaimed election analysis website which predicted results for the 2002 midterm elections, and looks ahead to the 2004 scene ( www.centerforpolitics.org/crystalball

Local Refugees Say U.S. Must Teach Democracy Monday, March 1, 2004. Local refugees say US must teach democracy. By Meg Murphy Staff Writer. Flawed elections in 2000 led to the uprising that toppled Jean http://www.eagletribune.com/news/stories/20040301/FP_002.htm
Extractions: Staff Writer LAWRENCE Haitians need U.S. Marines to restore security to their nation, but to maintain the peace, the people of Haiti need to be taught how to govern fairly, say several Lawrence residents who fled the country as youths. Jude Charles, a community activist, says it hurts him to see Haitians setting each other on fire, shooting and burning and looting stores. He said his countrymen must learn the patience to wait for an election when they oppose an official. But before they can do that, he said, the country must have a system that includes fair elections. Flawed elections in 2000 led to the uprising that toppled Jean-Bertrand Aristide, Haiti's first democratically elected president, for the second time. A military junta ousted him once before one of more than 30 coups in Haiti's 200-year history as an independent nation. "Here is a good chance for Haiti to get democracy," Charles said. But, he said, Haitians have watched dictators flee the country before only to have instability and terror return in anther form. Charles, 55, as a young man, fled the rule of Francis "Papa Doc" Duvalier, who was "president for life" when Charles left Haiti. Charles escaped death at the hands of Duvalier's feared Tontons Macoutes, or secret police, on several occasions after he spoke out about such things as the unjustified arrest of a neighbor.
