Dieuseul Simon Desras was a presidential candidate from the "Party for the Liberation of Masses and Social Integration" (PALMIS) in the last election who withdrew himself before the vote from the presidential run. Recently, Dieuseul (former Senate President) has asked the CEP to exclude Jovenel Moïse, the winner of the first runoff from the final runoff on December 27th.
