Prime Minister Dickon Mitchell and his National Democratic Congress (NDC) has won re-election in Grenada, taking 14 of the 15 seats up for grabs in the November 5 general election.
Mitchell, 49, an attorney, had brought the party into the corridors of power in June 2022, when it won a 9-6 victory, defeating the then-ruling New National Party (NNP), which at the time had commanded all 15 seats in Parliament.
“Thank you Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinique for giving our National Democratic Congress team the opportunity to keep serving you,” Mitchell wrote on his Facebook page.
The opposition New National Party (NNP) captured the remaining seat in St George North West, represented by Adrian Joseph, according to the latest reported results.
The outcome marks a significant political achievement for Mitchell, whose party first came to power in June 2022 after defeating the NNP administration led by former Prime Minister Keith Mitchell. In that election, the NDC secured nine seats, ending the NNP’s nine-year tenure in government.
Thursday’s result would increase the NDC’s parliamentary representation from nine to 14 seats, marking a decisive expansion of its majority and breaking the party’s historical pattern of serving only one term in government before losing power.
The victory gives Mitchell a renewed mandate to pursue his administration’s priorities, including economic development, infrastructure, healthcare, education and employment.
The NDC also dominated the popular vote, receiving 37,369 votes, or 61% of valid ballots cast. The NNP received 22,567 votes, representing 36.84%, while the Democratic People’s Movement finished third with 1,189 votes, or 1.94%.
The results give the NDC a popular vote advantage of 14,802 over the NNP.
With all 282 polling divisions reporting, voter turnout stood at 63.3%, with 61,460 ballots cast from an electorate of 97,031 registered voters.
Of the ballots cast, 61,264 were valid and 196 were rejected. A further 145 spoiled ballots were recorded separately.
