DRC Diasporas Organize to Vote in June Election · Global Voices
Alice Backer

Renouveau Congolais lauds (FR) efforts by Congolese diasporas in the United Kingdom and the United States to pressure the DRC's electoral commission for voting centers in host countries and encourages Congolese the world over to launch similar efforts.  Despite the electoral commission's decision not to allow diaspora voting, the UDPS’ UK chapter is organizing a voting center where Congolese can vote on June 1.  Votes will be tallied by Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and Wake Up Congo.
