ANTIGUA-ELECTIONS-Ruling party official urges patience as country awaits crucial court ruling

Apr 15, 2014

ST. JOHN’S, Antigua, CMC – Chairman of the ruling United Progressive Party (UPP), Leon Chacku” Symister said Monday he believes the OECS Court of Appeal is doing everything possible to give an early ruling in case that could have a bearing on the Antigua and Barbuda general elections.


Prime Minister Baldwin Spencer has said in the past that he cannot name the date for the general election because of the two outstanding court matters that had been filed by the main opposition Antigua Labour Party (ALP) leader, Gaston Browne.


The court matters relate to the constituency boundaries and the registration of electors and the ALP has said that this is no excuse for Prime Minister Spencer to delay naming the date for the polls.
