PJ Patterson votes to ‘rescue nation’
Former Prime Minister PJ Patterson has expressed confidence that People’s National Party (PNP) candidate for St Andrew North Eastern, Stacey Knight, will walk away victorious once voting has concluded.
After casting his vote at Shortwood Practising School, Patterson revealed that he voted in an attempt to “rescue the nation”, and to ensure that his constituency is represented by a contender who has the citizens’ best interests at heart.
“I have just completed my civic duty, voting not only for the party that is going to rescue Jamaica, but also a candidate who will be my next Member of Parliament (MP), bringing the requisite energy, understanding and commitment to serve the people very well, and ably, of North Eastern St Andrew,” said Patterson as he and Knight shared an embrace of comradery.
Knight is currently vying for a seat that has been dominated by the Jamaica Labour Party since 1997, and won by Delroy Chuck on all occasions.
