How it works

What this is

This site asks Yes/No questions about what is happening in the country: decisions, rules, problems. You answer, then you see the share of answers from people who answered before you.

It is not a poll. The people who answer chose to; they are not a representative sample of Haitians. That is why we never say "X% of Haitians think…"; we say "among those who answered, X% said Wi".

How questions are chosen

Every hour a program reads Haitian and diaspora media and official sources, groups articles by theme and measures which themes are rising.

For each hot theme an AI model drafts a neutral question in Kreyòl, French and English with a short context and the sources. A person reads, edits or rejects every proposal. Nothing is published without human approval.

Our rules: one idea per question; no leading words; questions about decisions and rules, not people; no armed group named; no question about a preferred candidate; no question about your own exposure to violence.

How long a question stays open

Usually 72 hours. If many people are answering it is extended by 72 hours, up to a 21-day cap. If the share of "Wi" moves less than 2 points over 48 hours with enough answers, the question closes as "settled". A closed question can reopen as a new round when its theme is back in the news.

The numbers

The number of answers (n) is always shown. A percentage appears only from 10 answers, and a group (department, country, age, gender) only from 30 answers.

On the web a small anonymous code is stored on your device to count one answer per device per question. This cannot stop a determined person answering several times from several devices; we say so plainly. We also watch for unusual bursts of answers: they are held aside, checked by a person, and we say publicly what we did.

Honesty

No fake accounts, no bots, no manufactured answers, no paid promotion of an answer. The project is independent and belongs to no party.
