Friday was not a good day for the PRD. The party received two resolutions from the Central Electoral Board (JCE) Disputes Chamber. The first required them to suspend Sunday's swearing-in ceremony for the leaders elected in the voting of last 27 September. The second ratified Resolution 068/2009 that suspended the swearing-in ceremony based on the fact that the JCE had yet to rule on the objections filed by Guido Gomez Mazara and Tony Pena Guaba to the results of the party elections.
