Campaign strategy and voting preference
This is the first general election in 50 years in which I will not be participating... I am not involved on this occasion because, after nearly 50 years of campaigning, far more than anyone else, I have earned the right to take a rest from active politics. (Seaga)
Portia for seventh heaven?
Calling the elections at a time when people's frustration levels over back-to-school expenses are highest and when Bruce Golding's inducement of free tuition is most tantalising might be tricky for the Prime Minister. She might be obsessed with seven, but has Prophet Phinn given her a six for a nine? (Boyne)
Portia's tawdry roadshow
I have been guilty of a serious error of judgement. The only consolation is that I was one of thousands of Jamaicans who made the same mistake, and the only excuse is that 'hope springs eternal in the human breast'. (Morris)
Trusting democracy at election time
Voters need electoral systems through which to elect their representatives to Parliament. Electoral systems therefore stand at the centre of democracies and the requirement for free and fair elections is a defining feature of democracy. (Buddan)
