GEORGE TOWN, Cayman Islands, CMC – Voters in this Caribbean island-nation go to the polls Wednesday to vote for a new government in a general election in which there are no clear-cut favourites. Two major parties, the People’s Progressive Movement (PPM) - which has branded itself as “The Progressives - under the leadership of attorney Alden McLaughlin and the United Democratic Party (UDP), led by former premier McKeeva Bush, are fielding slates of 15 and 12 candidates respectively. The People’s National Alliance (PNA), a breakaway faction of the UDP, which has formed a “lame duck” government since the ouster of Bush in a lack of confidence vote last December, is running a ticket of five candidates.
