Antigua Prepares for Crucial St Peter By-Election 2025, with Writ of Election Now Issued

Antigua and Barbuda – The constitutional process for the St Peter By-Election 2025, aimed at filling the vacant seat in the St Peter constituency following the death of former MP Asot Michael, has officially begun, as reported by Antigua News. On December 19, 2024, Prime Minister Gaston Browne wrote to the Governor General, requesting the commencement of the legal procedures required to fill the vacancy in Parliament, which was created by Michael’s death on November 5, 2024.

As per the 1981 Constitution Order of Antigua and Barbuda, Section 41(3), when a parliamentary seat becomes vacant, a by-election must be held within 120 days from the date the seat became vacant. The Prime Minister’s letter ensures that the necessary steps are followed in line with the law, setting the timeline for the by-election.

By-Election Timeline

The Prime Minister has set the following dates for the by-election process:

  • Monday, December 23, 2024 – Issuance of the Writ of Election
  • Tuesday, December 31, 2024 – Nomination Day for candidates
  • Tuesday, January 14, 2025 – By-Election Day

The by-election is set to take place on January 14, 2025, which is 68 days after Michael’s death, excluding Sundays and public holidays, in accordance with the Representation of the People (Amendment) Act No. 11 of 2002.

Significance of the By-Election

The St Peter constituency has been represented by Asot Michael for several terms, and his passing has created a political vacuum. The by-election presents an opportunity for political parties to contest this key seat in Parliament. Michael was a prominent figure in the Antigua and Barbuda Labour Party (ABLP), and his death has raised significant interest in who will succeed him in the constituency.

The race for the seat is expected to be competitive, with both the ruling ABLP and opposition parties preparing their candidates. The by-election outcome could play a role in shaping the political landscape of Antigua and Barbuda as the nation looks ahead to future elections.

With the writ of election now issued, the process is set to proceed as required by law, ensuring that the people of St Peter will soon have a new representative in Parliament. The country will be watching closely as the race to fill the vacant seat intensifies in the coming weeks.

Unitedpac St. Lucia News will continue to provide updates as the St Peter By-Election 2025 approaches. Stay tuned for more details.
