PPP General Secretary Clement Rohee yesterday said that no final decision has been taken on how the party would deal with a tie at the just-concluded Mabaruma town council elections.
Asked about the process to choose a mayor given that there is a tie between the PPP/C and the APNU+AFC, Rohee told a press conference that the party has not made a decision yet.
He noted that there are two ways to deal with such a situation—going to a by-election, which will see the election process being repeated, or have a rotation following a written agreement between the two parties.
“We haven’t decided on that as a political party. There are seven ties… We are not going to agree to anything that would put us in a disadvantageous position, politically. After we have discussed these matters, fully, internally, we will decide on which option we will go for,” Rohee said.
