PLD, PRD and PRSC politicians announced they would take a break for Easter Week. The PRD has said it will announce its presidential candidate, former President Hipolito Mejia on 8 May, but will take the Easter Week off from campaign activities. The PLD and the PRSC are immersed in the pre-convention campaigns, but pre-candidates agreed to also take a break.

Cardinal Nicolas Lopez Rodriguez had urged the political parties to abstain from political activism during the religious holiday.

"Easter Week should be a time for reflecting, pardoning, for family union and personal growth, a time to rid ourselves of negative feelings," said Victor Bisono, pre-candidate for the PRSC, as reported in Listin Diario.

El Dia reported that Congress shut down for work on Tuesday. Work would be resumed on Monday.
