THE PEOPLE of Barbados yesterday voted emphatically for change, sweeping the Democratic Labour Party (DLP) into office. And its leader David Thompson is expected to be sworn in as Prime Minister today.
After 14 years in the political wilderness, the DLP secured 20 of the 29 seats declared to enjoy a comfortable victory that was never in doubt after the first hour of counting.
The party captured the majority of seats in urban St Michael – eight, and four of the five Christ Church seats, swept the three in St Philip, and was within 200 votes of sweeping the three in St James. However, it only managed to get one of its four female candidates into winners' row. She was Dr Esther Byer-Suckoo (St George South).
In the process of winning the remaining ten seats, a number of high-profile members of the Barbados Labour Party (BLP), including nine ministers, lost their seats.
They are: Reginald Farley, Liz Thompson, Anthony Wood, Noel Lynch, Kerrie Symmonds, Trevor Prescod, Clyde Mascoll, Jerome Walcott and Rev Joseph Atherley.
A recount started in St Andrew before official declaration was made. At eh end of the first count, George Payne had 49 votes more than Irene Sandiford-Garner..
It was 20 minutes after midnight that Thompson was declared winner of the St John constituency. During a brief victory speech at DLP party headquarters on George Street, he said: "I thank the people of Barbados."
