PORT-AU-PRINCE, April 8 (Reuters) - Haiti's CEP electoral council said on Wednesday it was postponing a voter registration that should have begun on April 1, adding it would shortly announce new dates for registration for the nation's first presidential election in a decade.
The CEP previously scheduled the first round of presidential elections in the Caribbean's most populous country's for August 30.
However, a long-standing deterioration in security conditions which has forced over 1.4 million people - some 12% of the population - from their homes has cast doubt on the government's ability to deliver a free and fair vote.
