Recent developments in the All Saints West Primary election have added intrigue, with Lamin Newton and Regis Burton, leading candidates, likely heading for a run-off.
Newton won initially, but Burton disputes the outcome.
Burton’s letter to party leaders highlighted the election contract requiring a run-off if no candidate secured 50% of the votes.
Newton received 157 votes, Burton 142, and Arry Simon 60.
Insiders suggest Burton has a strong case, citing procedural issues and inaccuracies in the voters’ list and ballot count.
The concerns include discrepancies in the initial voters’ list despite revisions, incomplete inclusion of registered voters, and a ballot count lower than the reported turnout, without spoiled ballots.
The race is closely watched as it heads towards a competitive run-off to determine the final winner.
