Primary Reasons PNP and JLP Will and Might Vote
The data in Chart 8 and Chart 9 show that the PNP has more of the enviable vote – family tradition, built
up over longer periods of occupation of the seat. These types of votes are critical as they usually do not
change – even if the candidate is replaced, or other sudden shifts occur. Note that in this constituency
issuesare secondary; and these are usually about infrastructure, an area considered to be among the
PNP’s strength.
