Ethnic voting is there to stay. Members in Parliament should be selected by constituencies and not from a party list. Look how many square pegs we have in round holes currently.

Are out suggesting that we return to first pass the posts system? While I don’t disagree with this, the Constitution of Guyana will have to be changed. Cheddi Jagan promised to change the constitution and then abandoned the idea. BJ had a chance to do this when he amended the constitution to bring in the two term limit.
