Fond Cole residents are turning out in large numbers to cast ballots for their party of choice; in what can be described as the most-tense elections in recent years.
The polls officially opened at 7 am but residents were seen lining up as early as 5 am.
Other polling stations for Roseau North are situated in Morne Daniel, Goodwill Parish Hall, Goodwill Primary School, but only Fond Cole residents are voting at the community centre in their village. Other polling stations include the Alpha Centre, Christian Union Pre-School, St Alphonsus Pre-School, Red Cross Headquarters, Christian Union Primary School, House of Cleville Shillingford, House of Marigold Ulysses and the Dominica Football Facility
Voters are deciding between United Workers Party candidate Danny Lugay and the Dominica Labour Party’s Joseph Isaac.
Issac won the Roseau Central constituency on a UWP ticket in the last general elections but crossed the floor.
The Roseau North seat is currently being held by the UWP candidate, Danny Lugay.
All that is called professional PRETENCE. They want to give the impression that all is well with our election when deep within they know it’s far from being free and fair. They helped Skerrit put everything in place to steal the election and see them run to encourage people to go vote so those that don’t know better will say we had election
Mr. Joseph Isaac,
Five years ago, you fooled the people of Roseau Central. Do you now expect to also fool the people of Roseau North. I can’t see that happening at all Sir. You need to start thinking of an alternative livelihood, because you will not be sitting in parliament tomorrow.
We burying that traitor deep in the labass.
