PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad and Tobago — Prime Minister Stuart R. Young has advised President Christine Kangaloo to dissolve Parliament effective midnight on March 18, triggering the official start of the 2025 general election process, according to the Trinidad Express.

Young, citing Section 68 of the Constitution, advised the President to issue Writs of Election, setting April 4 as Nomination Day and April 28 as Polling Day. The election comes just days after Young’s appointment as prime minister, following the resignation of former leader Keith Rowley.

Key Election Dates Announced

The election timeline is as follows:

  • Parliament dissolves: Midnight, March 18, 2025
  • Writs of Election issued: March 18, 2025
  • Nomination Day: April 4, 2025
  • Polling Day: April 28, 2025

Trinidad Election 2025 Sparks Heated Political Battle

This election is expected to be a high-stakes political showdown between Young’s People’s National Movement (PNM) and the opposition United National Congress (UNC), led by Kamla Persad-Bissessar.

The election comes at a critical time for Trinidad and Tobago, which has faced a surge in violent crime, prompting the government to declare a state of emergency in late 2024. Additionally, economic concerns tied to fluctuations in global oil and gas prices will be key topics on the campaign trail.

Electoral Process and Voter Engagement

Trinidad and Tobago’s Elections and Boundaries Commission (EBC) has finalized minor constituency adjustments, renaming five electoral districts while maintaining the total count of 41 seats—39 in Trinidad and two in Tobago.

With political tensions rising, both the PNM and UNC have started mobilizing their supporters for what is expected to be an intense election campaign.

As the April 28 election approaches, citizens remain divided—some hopeful for change, while others remain skeptical about whether new leadership will bring meaningful reform.

What’s Next?

With official campaigning now underway, the Trinidad election 2025 is shaping up to be a fierce battle for power. Voter turnout is expected to play a crucial role in determining the nation’s political future.

Unitedpac St. Lucia News will continue to provide updates as the election unfolds.
