PNP supporters on the road tour in Manchester- File
People’s National Party vice president Angela Brown Burke says the party has identified the areas where it needs to work hardest, to ensure a local Government election win by the PNP.
Brown Burke said, for example, although it appears that the PNP could regain power of the Kingston and St. Andrew Corporation, the party is not taking it for granted.
Jamaicans last voted in a local government election on December 5, 2007.
At that time, the Jamaica Labour Party, fresh from its September 3, 2007 general election win swept the parish council polls.
The JLP claimed eight parish councils as well as the Kingston and St. Andrew Corporation and the mayorship of the municipality of Portmore, while the PNP gained the majority in three parish councils with a tie in St. Ann.
For the upcoming elections, there will be 228 divisions up from 227 the last time round because of recent boundary changes.
