Aubrey Norton won Saturday’s contest for the PNCR Leadership by a landslide and several members of his slate snapped up key positions over more seasoned competitors in what will be interpreted as a rejection of the policies of outgoing leader David Granger whose close confidante, Joseph Harmon was also in the race but trailed far behind.
Norton’s election immediately raises the question of if the PNCR will seek to have him enter Parliament and take over the role of Opposition Leader from Harmon who had been shepherded there by Granger after he excluded many senior party officials from the list of MPs
