WASHINGTON, CMC - The Organization of American States (OAS) says the electoral victories of Barbados Prime Minister Freundel Stuart and his counterpart in Grenada, Dr. Keith Mitchell, are as a result of the confidence the electorate in both countries have showed in their ability to lead their respective countries. Mitchell lead his New National Party (NNP) to a clean sweep of all 15 seats in the Fenruary 19 general elections in Grenada, while Stuart won a slender two-seat majority in the Barbados polls on February 21. His Democratic Labour Party (DLP) won 16 of the 30 seats in the parliament. OAS Secretary General said that Stuart’s victory “showed the confidence of the people of Barbados” in his plans and that the victory “took place in a very competitive environment combined with an exemplary atmosphere of peace, freedom and justice, as is the tradition in the Caribbean country.”
