General Elections will be held here on December 09, Prime Minister Dr. Ralph Gonsalves has announced.
Parliamentary elections were last held on 13 December 2010.
In the last general election, Gonsalves’ Unit Labour Party (ULP) won by a one-seat margin to take control of the 21-member House of Assembly. The New Democratic Party, led by Arnhim Eustace, won seven seats.
correction:
Vincentiion Parliament has 15 seats and not 21 as stated …ruling ULP had won 8 and opposition 7—ULP LOOKING FOR ITS 4TH CONSECUTIVE TERM.
One thing I know Vincentians are not fooled like OUR people I know they will Make the right choice
Wonder if our PM skerrit will go and help to campaign with he crock him by building an airport .
Gonzlaves need a rest……………….please it is time to get new blood, thinkers……..vision etc
Bye Ralph
And here is the assessment of the situation on the ground in St Vincent as of October 2015 from the Barbados based CADRES (Peter Wickham’s research organization): ” The upcoming election in St Vincent and the Grenadines is going to be a tight race and none of the main political parties can be confident of victory. Basically, this means that the Comrade is beatable.
Correction: The quote should be closed after the word victory. For emphasis , CADRES was quoted as saying ” The upcoming general election in St Vincent and the Grenadines is going to be a tight race and none of the main political parties can be confident of victory.”
