BEVERLEY is coming into THIS ELECTION with 42 AUTOMATIC VOTES from 21 bands in TOBAGO. Dey going TRIBE through and through; not ONE BAND breaking RANKS.
So all BEVERLEY needs is 9 BANDS from the entire island of TRINIDAD out of 79 BANDS and she WINS the ELECTION. If Denise cannot deliver and dem other women cannot deliver those 9 BANDS then something wrong with them.
So what is left is 70 BANDS (140 votes) to divide up among SIX CANDIDATES. Ah giving 4 bands to Robert Amar (Black people eh voting for no Indian to rule them) and ah giving 6 bands to Lawford Dupres (black people eh voting for no French Creole to rule them -- although this is the BEST CANDIDATE) and ah giving 3 bands to TECHLA and 4 bands to Morancie.
So now we left with 53 bands to divide up among the BIG THREE TEAMS. 106 votes -- that is average of roughly 35 votes per candidate. How are those going to shift so that one candidate get 61 votes? Very unlikely.
It is clear that the TOBAGO BANDS voting as a BLOCK creates a RIGGED SYSTEM giving BEVERLEY a decided advantage in the race, The big question is: How do you let 21 bands STEAL an election from 79 BANDS.
Something is wrong with THAT SYSTEM!!!

Mr. Sheppard has a list and he done have his 30 bands line up already.
Nova Heart: You must be AN EXPAT who doh know NOTHING about what is going on IN THE MECCA on the GROUND.
This race right now has been reduced to a TWO PERSON RACE between TWO CAMPAIGN MANAGERS.
One TEAM is led by the distinguished CAMPAIGN MANAGER -- Claude Gonzales. And the other team is led by the QUEEN OF CAMPAIGN MANAGERS -- DENISE HERNANDEZ. That is the RACE RIGHT NOW!!!
Everybody else DONE WINE TO THE SIDE. Sheppard cannot even make it to BASE CAMP much less the SUMMIT!!!
So either join forces with DENISE or join forces with CLAUDE and let us BATTLE OUR WAY to the FINISH LINE!!!

Now, as a high level political analyst, there is only one solution to BEAT BEVERLEY. And that is to reduce the THREE BIG TEAMS down to TWO BIG TEAMS. That means that one of the THREE BIG TEAMS has to get thrown UNDER THE BUS -- dramatically reducing their share of votes. And we will still need to send a political team to TOBAGO to bribe about 5 BANDS to take away about 10 votes from BEVERLEY bringing her in line with the TWO BIG TEAMS. And as HARDCORE and TRIBAL as the TOBAGO BANDS are, those might have to some SIZEABLE BRIBES.
Alternative to the BRIBES, we will have to GET FORTEAU (or BRIBE FORTEAU -- same BRIBE AGAIN!) to decertify at least 6 of the TOBAGO BANDS for some kind of contrived infractions. So while BEVERLEY gone back home and counting the votes and the big salary and the fancy rental car and the TRIPS AROUND THE WORLD -- we are here at CAMPAIGN CENTRAL MAPPING WINNING STRATEGIES!!!
Hey, IS POLITICS!!! And the winner gets to control over FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR. So don't harass me with this ETHICS BUSINESS!!!
The QUESTION remains are those band members/delegates in good financial standing???
WHO is going to authenticate their STATUS???
Are the list of delegates VERIFIABLE???
What PROCEDURES are in place to ensure the integrity of the PROCESS???
