The Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine said its commitment to holding elections rests on viewing them as a democratic and constitutional right denied to Palestinians for nearly two decades, Shehab Wire reported. A member of the Front's political bureau made the statement as the faction rejected hints from Fatah about postponing the vote.
The Democratic Front's position signals resistance to further delays in electoral processes meant to restore Palestinian governance structures after a prolonged absence of balloting.
