A peaceful morning for the voters in the constituency of Arima who came out to cast their votes for the 2025 General Election.
At the Arima Girls Government Primary School, residents of the area proudly displayed their stained fingers as proof that they exercised their civic duty.
One voter, Richard Elvin, told TTT News: “Very simple; it flowed alright. No problems at all, you know. Right, so you say no issues at all? No, none at all, none at all. Right. Wish everybody the best. And I guess you’re not a first-time voter? No, I’ve been doing this for a little while now. Right, what makes you keep coming out and voting? Because it’s a good thing to do, man. People die for this, right? And we get to do it for free.”
Another voter, Margaret Nicholas, said, “I look forward to that because I know that’s my civic duty, and when certain things not happening in your life and you need this and you need that, if you didn’t vote, you don’t get it. When I say, they’re not using the voting for it, but it is important to vote so that certain things that you need in the area, the government will help you through that.”
The People’s National Movement candidate for Trincity/Maloney and Arima resident, Camille Robinson-Regis, expressed her confidence in her party’s chances.
“Everything went smoothly. And my daughters are all here, the twins. They voted for the first time, so they are first-time voters. And they also said the process was smooth. No hiccups at all. I predict that the seat of Trincity Maloney will be won by the People’s National Movement. That’s the only prediction I have. I know that for sure.”
