Michael Freeland has secured the Antigua and Barbuda Labour Party (ABLP) candidacy for St. George and is now focused on rebuilding the party’s branch in the constituency.
Freeland won Tuesday’s primary with 360 votes, defeating media personality Joel Rayne (331), former senator Bakisha Francis-James (142), and entrepreneur Salim Browne (42). A total of 1,611 people were eligible to vote at Potters Primary School.
After a close first-round count, Freeland edged ahead, sealing victory in the final tally. Following the announcement, all four candidates embraced, while Freeland’s supporters celebrated.
“This win feels even better than the first time,” he said. “Now it’s time to unite, strengthen the team, and bring St. George back to the ABLP. The people deserve better, and I’m here to deliver.”
Freeland will now challenge incumbent United Progressive Party MP Algernon ‘Serpent’ Watts in the next general election.
