Correction--it does show the presidential result. I think that does make sense, and that such a stub is acceptable. (I note the original version entered did not have the box).

I think it is better not to have such a completely empty article especially as one of a series, because if it is not there it will show up as a red link in the Haitian elections infobox at the bottom, thus making it clear that there is an article that still needs to be written. I do not think it helps the encyclopedia for people to turn to an article and find no information at all. (Though I think in a case like this they might realize that its a series under construction). At the very least, it could have shown the result for President!

If you ask me, "no context" is a ridiculous reason to tag substubs for deletion, unless they are really incomprehensible. I usually let people know that this isn't such a bright idea after I remove the tag; they usually don't complain, which to me indicates they were probably gold mining and/or are overenthusiastic "contributors".
If you don't delete they get the tagging to add to their edit count.
