*** The 2025 GENERAL ELECTION thread***

You tell em Max. Mini Mart making money right through

[Les Bain]

Might be jus me but this election season felt real off.
It's an important one for sure, but going out to vote today felt like a lowkey local government election. Finger stained, back to WFH.

Anyway, apart from election day dad jokes, does NJAC exist anymore?

You tell em Max. Mini Mart making money right through

[Dohplaydat]

After messing around with my code there's like a 1% chance UNC wins.

I wish them luck but stats are against them.

[st7]

Wont be voting.

Doesn’t matter to me who win or loss and who crying after and bawling oh dey go dead. Allyuh ass too blasted happy.

I have zero faith in the majority of politicians as the good minority are not being allowed to make the change needed.

Show me a good leader, and you have my vote.

Don’t ask me to vote for no clowns and liars who think they can fool me with dreams and promises. I have had it.

I will continue to ketch my ass to survive and work hard enough to pay for increased cost of living and to put measures in place to protect myself and family regardless of who is in power.

All dem financiers and politicians just waiting to see what and how much they could take with no regard for the citizens.

And allyuh going out to vote for “change” today? Smfh

Typical Trinis thinking today is the time to “stand together”……..think again.

apparently there are those who think that your choice not to vote isn't your constitutional right, and more so that you din vote for their party to feel validated.

breds, you right about why you didn't vote. if you dont have any faith in any one, why must you 'pick the lesser of two evils'. them small-minded people are easily herded.

[pugboy]

i always thought that there should be an option to cast a negative vote also
eg let your vote be a minus 1 for which ever party you want to reduce

[hover11]

Just came from voting the place was dead looks like a lot of pnm supporters staying home. Makes me think that we want change but not willing to be part of the change

[pugboy]

plenty ppl come out to vote in pos south

Guys it’s Election Day let’s temper the tone of our posts. While the technology allows the discourse let us respect the spirit of the constitution.
After 6pm we can crank it up again
Be safe

So if someone now reading the posts from yesterday that illegal?

[one eye]

Please make the right choice today.

This country cannot bear another 2010-2015 term.

Hover11, after lunch many will go to vote.

[Dizzy28]

Voted this morning.
My Station was quite busy but our area has a typically high voter turnout.

Didn't even realize there were like 6 candidates. In thr entire campaign I saw Ameen once and that was because I was in Macoya for Easter with the kid to fly kite. PNM never passed at least at any times I was home.

EBC said for social media posts: if posted before midnight it can stay, but do not post new msgs today or update or repost or share until 6pm, post that would encourage ppl to vote, or not vote for a particular party.

They also said you can wear any colour, as long as it doesn't have party names or symbols. you can also vote without a poll card if u didnt get 1 and without an ID card but u will have to swear that you are the person whose name u voting under. DPs dont count as ID- i only walked with my DP and had to swear.

[redmanjp]

I saw a H taxi registered for elections in my area outside the polling station- exactly what they doing?

So you saying that I can walk in to vote, tell them I have no ID card, just swear that my name is Duane Boodasingh and I good to go ?

So basically no kinda logic to support this so called law

You must have had an ID at some point to be able to vote. Its how you get registered and placed on the list.
On election day they have the big book from EBC's office that has your National ID history. They verify your identify by matching you against the photo on file. I saw this myself this morning.
