Haitians are expected to go to the polls today to elect a president, the first presidential election since a rebellion two years ago deposed Jean-Bertrand Aristide, who had been Haiti's first democratically elected president. On this date in 1986, so-called President-for-Life Jean-Claude Duvalier fled his country to take refuge in France, ending 28 years of family rule. Among the front-runners in today's election to lead what is the Western Hemisphere's poorest nation are Rene Preval, Marc L. Bazin and Dany Toussaint.
