#DecisionJa2016: Montague unhappy with slow voting in Hunts Town
ST MARY, Jamaica — Robert ‘Bobby’ Montague, the Jamaica Labour Party candidate for St Mary Western, says he intended to file a complaint to the director of elections regarding the slow processing of voters at the Hunts Town polling stations location in the constituency.
“In all our pre-election meetings I have been pointing out to the Electoral Office that we always have a problem because the personnel they send there, whether it is deliberate or incompetence,there is always a slow-down in Hunts Town and those PDs are my largest,” Montague said.
He said an official report has been made to the returning officer, pointing out that there has been a problem in the past and he will not allow it to continue.
According to the JLP candidate, reports have so far indicated that the JLP is ahead of its projections in St Mary Western.
Montague said his aim is to win the Oracabessa Division, a division the JLP has never won in a general elections.
“So far we are ahead of projections and we doing well,” Montague said, as he expressed confidence of victory.
Montague cast his vote in Windsor Castle 19 minutes after 8 this morning at the Ground of Truth Church.
