Election Results - A Trend Towards Change

Election day has just gone by. There had been no serious incidence during the process of people electing their representative except for one that happened in the morning in an area that is known to be a stronghold of the alternative party. That incident was handled quite well by the security personnel averting the incident from escalating.

The results have started coming in and the trend shows that people wants change. People have shown sentiments that they do not agree with some of the things the governing party does in running the country. Although many seats are won by the current governing party candidates but their majority votes have deteriorated when compared to previous elections. Two presidents of component parties amongst the coalition of ruling parties lost their seats and lost badly too. These are messages for the ruling coalition to take note of. I think it is a trend towards change. People wants change. 50 years of independence and people are saying that they are not happy and they want change.

The ruling party will now have to do a search of what went wrong and what needs to be done to remedy. They were riding high in the previous elections but now there are setbacks. A change is obviously required……… we will have to wait and see. Meanwhile more results of the elections are coming in and the trend have been the same…..
