Peter Bunting Wins with Massive Vote Haul
The People’s National Party’s (PNP) Peter Bunting has kept his electoral record intact after securing a less-than-easy win over Danville Walker in what was always expected to be a close contest in Central Manchester.
Running on the ticket of the PNP, Bunting polled 10,481 votes to hold off Walker, the Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) standard bearer, who polled 10,042 votes.
It was a fascinating battle to the end, with all polls predicting a very close race, heightening the intrigue.
From early out, colourful media advertisements and feisty commercials were centred around, or, fired at the competing candidate. So were the plethora of press releases and statements, signalling that the two men had no intention of relenting in the intense contest.
