EDITOR, The Tribune.
WITH the collapse of the opposition it seems clear now that Perry Christie will have a third term as prime minister. His government has been poor at the job, but at least the PLP is a coherent party.
The FNM/DNA/Tribe of Loretta is a daily train wreck. I want Mr Christie gone but cannot see the splintered opposition winning.
If the PLP is returned the hope for change will be in ousting Mr Christie after the election.
Alfred Sears seems to be the only man or woman of courage on that side. When the time comes, assuming Sears wins his seat, those in our country who want change should lend him their support. He is an accomplished man; a man of intelligence; a moderate who would be a good representative on the world’s stage for our country.
Mr Sears is challenging the PLP leader at next month’s convention. That effort is more symbolic, however.
The true effort at change will come after election day.
It is sad that the FNM is such a lousy party. This was an election it was supposed to win with ease. But they just can’t get their act together – no unity, no vision.

What many people aren't seeing is the young voters are going to decide with fate of the next general elections. Knowing that young voters registration surpass any other age bracket the government is now trying to focus on the young generation but little that they know is unlike those hardcore dedicated PLP and FNM supporters the young generation are so gullible and not easy to please, this won't be like the time when mommy daddy or grandparents forces young ppl to vote because in this generation the young ppl

Voter registration is at an all time low. Seems no one is excited enough to actually go register....
