NOTE: APNU+AFC HAS NO PROBLEM WITH THE ABOVE. THE STATEMENTS OF POLLS FOR THE REMAINING BOXES WILL SHOW THAT THE COALITION WON. APNU+AFC HAS THE NUMBERS FOR THE BOXES THAT GECOM HAS NOT COUNTED YET.

* That's a reasonable comment above.

* But you initially stated that most of the 276 polling stations in region 4 to be counted were from APNU strongholds---you were just speculating.---you didn't know that.

BOTTOM LINE:

* With the votes tied---with just under 100K votes to be counted---and with more than 50% of the remaining 490 polling stations to be counted from region 4(PNC stronghold)----the probability favors a small coalition victory.

RE: SEATS

* If PPP wins region 8----then APNU 33; PPP 32 seats

Rev

The PPP will not win region 8, APNU+AFC has the statement of polls from region 8 and they have comfortably won the region.

The election being close is not a bad thing. Guyana needs a strong opposition. The PPP with Jagdeo was able to use many heavy handed tactics to starve and squeeze the opposition making them ultra weak.

Jagdeo used to boast and openly state he wished for a stronger opposition. Well that arrogance brought him today.

of the 490 to be verified...417 in region 4

You really think PPP win?

Here's the perspective:

2011 election

APNU+AFC = 33 seats

PPP = 32 seats + presidency

2015 election

APNU+AFC = 33 seats + presidency

PPP = 32 seats

* That's what I am PREDICTING.

* You know how accurate my predictions are.hahahaha

Rev

The AFC upset the PPP applecart.

Naah! It was Jagdeo who drove the final nail into the PPP coffin.

the minority government clarified some issues...the PPP is to sit on the sidelines with budget making. I hope they do not complain about the one seat majority!

Rev, yuh rass jump all over me when I grew cautious the other day.  I reduced my bet to 50/50 for the PPP and you called my nervous something!

I had me ear close to the ground and heard Indians turning to the opposition.  Nagamootoo was feisty and Granger was bold in giving him a lot of stock options.  The gamble seem to have paid for both.  Let's now hope the people reap the dividends.

HERE ARE GECOM'S NUMBERS

PPP 157,304; APNU 157,347 = 314,651 (under 100K votes to go)

HERE WERE GRANGER'S NUMBERS YESTERDAY

PPP 157,947; APNU 182,176 = 340,123

HERE WERE RAMOTAR'S NUMBERS YESTERDAY

PPP 182,664; APNU 151,095 = 333,759

BOTTOM LINE:

*When you examine that GECOM number and then look at the 490 polling stations to be counted---and over 276 of the polling stations are from region 4(APNU stronghold)----the probability strong favors a COALITION victory.

* Of course you guys know how great the Rev is at PREDICTING.LOL

Rev

Allyou rass think allyou know statistics. Gilbakka passed 2 statistics and 1 econometrics courses at university. Grade B.So long ago me forget most of it because me ent turn out to be economist.

* Bhaiji your sources were impeccable.

Rev

Granger IS QC

* Raaaasssss bai--dem have some bright people pon dis forum.

Rev

Kari..I meant PPP QC people.

Finally, retail politics come home to Guyana.  The "base" alone will not guarantee victory.  The party has to reach outward, and Granger was faster on that draw.  Jagdeo appeals to the base, he is a "baseman", no pun intended.

It's not all about the base!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PCkvCPvDXk

* When you listen to some of these QC alumni you'd believe QC is some IVY league University. 

* But it's just a high school.

 * Guess what ?  For 95% of QC graduates---the highlight of their academic life was attending high school QC. Most ended up at 3rd rate Universities.

Rev

Holy shit rev don't don't go there, please I beg you...please...I'll even say one a dem tings fo go to heaven, pray, yeh I'll even pray,, don't say PPP losing and the Coalition got it in de bag.

Please give us numbers as before  u know like PPP 68%  APNU/AFC 32%...I welcome it.

Tell dem rass deh Rev. Iman bin ah HIGH school in Warlock tarass...bad man cain hung with the pack one one time Reuimveldt side. Iman got all kinda paper certifikates an so on even a few for henglish, dat one i find was rale easy.

Anyway, Iman got to go and get a car wash, gotta do the dam thing manual now because of GNI, sheet.

HA HA HA HA HA

* I knew I'd scare the shyt out of somebody.

* Arrite then! Granger and Nagamootoo have seen all the SOPs---and they are highly confident of victory.

Rev

That one fer sure wuznt baseless atal atal.
