San Fernando East is happy with the constituency's Parliamentary Representative and plans to re-nominate Patrick Manning to be candidate for the People’s National Movement (PNM) in the next general election.The PNM leader has represented the constituency since 1971 when he was elected unopposed in the no-vote campaign launched for that election.
Constituency chair Tina Gronlund-Nunez told reporters Sunday the constituency has full confidence in Manning, adding that the process for nominating a candidate will begin Monday morning.
She said the constituency has already moved a motion of full confidence in Manning "so therefore, I do not expect any changes from that feeling. That was just not even two weeks ago.”
Manning instructed the PNM on Saturday to begin the nomination process, starting with his own constituency on April 7.
Manning has not announced an election date, but he told PNM supporters since the opposition has been clamouring for an election he might just give them their wish.
Both the UNC and COP have responded by telling Manning to name the date.
