PPP/C presidential candidate Donald Ramotar is to be the country’s next president, the Guyana Elections Commission announced at around 4.20 pm.
The PPP/C has secured 32 seats, A Partnership for National Unity 26 seats and the Alliance For Change, seven seats.
For the second election in a row, the PPP/C lost substantial support in terms of the numbers of voters who turned out.
PPP/C not controlling Parliament means that it will need one of the opposition groups to support its measures in Parliament.
It will also be vulnerable to a motion of no confidence which if successfully passed would unseat the government and fresh elections would have to be called.
THIS IS A GOOD OPTION FOR GUYANA TO BE INCLUSIVE. ONE WINNER DOES NOT TAKE ALL.
