All eyes are still on the St John seat at this time.
Opposition Leader Ralph Thorne was soundly beaten in four of the early boxes JA1, JA2, JA3, JA 4 and JB1 by the incumbent Charles Griffith of the Barbados Labour Party who secured a lead of 892 against Thorne’s 574.
However Thorne made a small comeback in two boxes – JC1 where he led by two votes 83 to 81 and JC2 – where he made a significant lead 288 to Griffiths 141. (MB)
