Weak NDP Slate
Haven't these people learned from last time! You had 10 candidates in 2019 and lost. Now you have just 9 in 2023 and had to pull in Lorna. Marlon and his team weak. Can't even get a full slate. Wheel and come again NDP.
Kedrick has endorse Perline?? What track record does he has ..besides bush chopping for Youths Smh
I listened to Mr. TROY Christopher this morning on Tola Radio stating what his Grandfather did for the Youths in Long Look...
The convo. was meaningful...and the audience was quite!!! If Heritage had drop a pen you could have heard it!! People we need to get back to what we know...Lets get back to our roots .. The Way We Were!!Lets care more about our youths!!!
Seems like the VIP propaganda machine is hard at work now HC is not here to funnel funds for huge campaigns. The Wiggo feeling the heat so much he’s looking exhausted from all the late night pseudo blogging on this and other sites pushing his agenda. The VIP team is very weak and have little hope of getting a clear majority. Let the games begin!
@OK
THey look stronger but they are not. NDP and PVIM have strong teams because both are filled with knowledge and education that affects this country and that will take us forward. Though they do not have a fullslate, the candidates are rounded candidates.
Politicians better pay attention to the blogs. Bloggers has a good idea of whats happening on the ground. I can recall the X Premier up in Miami saying he don't read blogs they are one person blogging ten times, well if that what he thought then, he should have listen to that one blogger when they were warning him to change his ways, quit the fight and disrespect with the Governor but he allow CSC to continueously encouraged him in his bad ways. Now loik what happen . The bloggers are the streets, the ghetto, the work place. . Pay attention.
Perline was in charge of water & sewage for years. Not only was she consistently *** to staff and customers alike, it was the worst run government department (in a crowd of very badly run departments). Any person or party that associates with her will not get my vote.
Lorna is doing her best to be seen speaking to people on the street but it is not a very convincing act and I can’t believe that she will continue if she is elected (and don’t think she is electable). Apart from Myron and Kedrick, who are the others?
No candidate seems to be reaching out to the 1,800 new voters!
@tasty,
It’s over 6,000 voters, some of their children turn 18 this year. Some of the at large candidates need to look at the voters list, if the want to win. This eke is a game changer.
DON’T Forget that DMV down Pockwood Pond, still harassing people to sanitize. I need clean air to breathe and proper customer service, before sanitizing my hands. Stupes.
As long as Myron Walwyn is on the team there are those of us that will NEVER vote for Kedrick or Lorna, although we would like to. NEVER MYRON!!!!! Not he!!!!! So all our votes going PVIM. When will they learn that the man is kryptonite?
