TRINIDAD & TOBAGO: Manning wins comfortable majority
Prime Minister Patrick Manning won a second straight term in office on 5
November with his ruling People's National Movement (PNM) securing 26 of the 41
seats in parliament. The opposition United National Congress-Alliance (UNC-A)
picked up the remaining 15 seats, with its dissident splinter group, Congress of
the People (COP) failing to return a single seat. It managed to attract a
significant amount of the UNC-A core vote, however, enabling the PNM to win key
marginal constituencies.
