Sandys North electoral contest initiated
A writ of election has been issued formally ordering the holding of a by-election for Sandys North.
Tenia Woolridge, the Parliamentary Registrar, announced the move setting October 4 as the polling date for Constituency 36.
The process followed the resignation of Kathy-Lynn Simmons, who was a Progressive Labour Party MP. She informed the Speaker of the House on August 6 that she would be stepping down after almost four years in the seat.
Allen Temple African Methodist Episcopal Church Hall on Sound View Road, Sandys has been set as the polling station.
Registration for the by-election is to close at 5pm on August 29.
Voters in the constituency were advised to check their registration details online at elections.gov.bm, or in person, to verify their information.
