Official results of the Jamaican Elections pending

I just spend 4 hours glued to my TV switching between our two major local channels TVJ and CVM TV trying to make sense out off all the information flowing in and to see who won today’s elections. After all those hours I am so confused that I will just go to bed and brace myself for what will or will not happen in the recount tomorrow, because as it is now it’s 31 seats for the JLP and 29 seats for the PNP. Quite frankly I am scared right now, scared of what might happen in the recounts and various court battles that have already begun, the violence, the anarchy, the tension…I better go sleep off this headache….I hate blogging about Politics.

I’ll be linking to other Jamaica bloggers who are blogging up a political storm when I make my final post on these elections when the victor is decided.

  1. I hope you realise that the election has not been won just yet.Personally i think the JLP should have done better than that considering the money speant and the PR. I was happy to hear Bruce’s speech because i thought he would have come across differently, but his speech was excellent and statesmanlike…

  2. See why we all should vote, maybe just maybe, it could have been different either way but and at least it might have been a clear margin of victory.

  3. bobby you are so right. I have friends who did not come out because they couldn’t be bothered. I excercised my right. However, what I will say is this….it is only in the last 10 years that the electorial process has appeared "fair and square". If you look at Jamaica’s political history you will see that it has always been landslide victories for both parties. Therefore, I think that over time, more people will apprciate the value of voting.

  4. @ JG yep i agree with that assessment on the political history … actually i have been voting from ’89 did so for pnp jlp and ndm … jlp got this one this time.

  5. The JLP seems to have won. It’s extremely close though. But I have to say, I don’t think I can take 5 more years of the PNP.

  6. Hey hold dwn on the name calling trevor pleeez….. being chronologically mature gives you no right to call me ooooooooooolllllllllddddddd. want to test how oooooooooolllllddddd i am a race just to name a test of many that we can do. Mmmmph!!!
