2016 provisional government
Following Michel Martelly's resignation on 10 February 2016, he finished second to Jocelerme Privert in the second round of the indirect provisional presidential election in February 2016 (in which only the Parliament voted).[3]
Edgard Leblanc was one of six people named as a potential prime minister,[4] but Fritz Jean ended up getting the nod.[5]
