Dont be too sure of that. People need food. The AFC hasnt offered any. Politricks in the Caribbean is about patronage and he who has it to give gets the votes.

Dont know whats going to happen but dont think the PPP hasnt acceived some thing here. Go to their website and in your face is something about teh African Holocaust followed by some thing about Amerindians. Its obvious what their plan is. They know the Guyanese masses can eb swayed by patronage here and there....if not to vote for them then at least not to vote against them.

The PPP wants to ensure that blacks, seeing a weak PNC, not knowing of what relevance the AFC is to them, "knowing" the PPP will win, will decide not to vote...reducing the pool of anti PPP voters/

Most likely there will be a serious drop in turn out in Linden. In 2006 numbers were down over 30% from 2001. I expect an even bigger drop this time.

The votes appear to be primarily between the PPP/C and PNCR.

Show me meetings in Lidnen when they poured out to hear the AFC the way that some appeared to make the PPP look good. YOU CANT. OK. So continue to philosophize when Lindeners refuse to vote in their thousands thinking a PPP victory is inevitable so voting is a waste of time.

I doubt Linden will vote PPP. However a low turn out in an anti PPP area will ensure that there are insufficient votes to offset PPP victories in their strongholds. Note if the PPP gets 75% instead of their normal 95% in PPP areas they still won.

Face it the AFC goofed. They thought they had the urban black vote in the bag so they put all their resources to get teh Berbice vote. Now too late they see their error. What tehy afiled to understand is they NEVER had the urban vote. The PNC had, and with that party collapsing the "Dont Plan to Vote" party has made big inroads.
