Her reply is one that will go down one of the in the annals of political
history.
Without missing a beat and in all seriousness, Hanna replied, “It’s not
about a margin because if 32 of us did win by 32 votes we would be skinning our
32 teeth right now because we’d be in government. It really is about
leadership.â€
The PNP lost the September 3 General Election in a wipe-out that saw the party retain only 14 seats in the 63-member Parliament.
