Rigging to cling to power
DEAR EDITOR,
Having read Freddie Kissoon column “Mercury and the Russians rigged the elections for the PPP” (KN, 19th May 2020) in which he alleges that there was a grand scheme by the PPP to purchase some 35,000 ID cards mostly of dead people I am astounded that Freddie Kissoon could be taken in so easily.
Logistically speaking for 30,000 dead people to vote would require that at least 10,000 PPP supporters would be willing to vote at least 4 times.
The only grand scheme has been the rigging of the 2nd March 2020 elections by Clairmont Mingo in favour of the PNC-led APNU+AFC which all the international observers can attest to. The APNU+AFC has tried to use this rigging to cling to power.
Yours faithfully,
Sean Ori
Editor’s Note: Mr. Kissoon’s “Mercury and the Russians rigged the elections for the PPP” column was a satirical piece.
