The people of Barbados yesterday voted emphatically for change, sweeping the Democratic Labour Party (DLP) into office. It's leader David Thompson is expected to be sworn in as Prime Minister today.
After 14 years in the political wilderness, the DLP secured 20 of the 29 seats declared to enjoy a comfortable victory that was never in doubt after the first hour of counting.
The party captured the majority of seats in St. Michael, eight, and four of the five Christ Church seats, swept the three in St. Philip, and was within 200 votes of sweeping the three in St. James. However, it only managed to get one of its four female candidates into winners row. She was Dr Esther Byer-Suckoo (St. George South).
In the process of winning the remaining ten seats, a number of high-profile members of the Barbados Labour Party (BLP), including nine ministers, lost their seats.
The tidal wave of support for the Democratic Labour party dashed Owen Arthur's dream of leading the Barbados Labour Party to four straight victories and his fourth term as Prime Minister.
