PLD and PRD deputies representing Santo Domingo North have signed a non-aggression pact to prevent clashes between rival supporters, at least in their part of Santo Domingo, during this year's electoral campaigning. Officials are asking for similar agreements to be signed by PLD and PRD members around the country. The pact is the latest attempt to maintain the peace during campaigning in the remaining 64 days before the 16 May elections, but a pact does not bring guarantees.
