Jack says he is going to win
So indicated a confident Jack Warner, the Independent Liberal Party’s candidate for the area, minutes after casting his vote at the Five River’s Hindu Primary School in Arouca.
Ask by the Express about whether he had decided on his next move if votes in the General Election turn out to be 20-20-1, with him capturing the deadlock seat, he responded:
“The votes shall be 20-20-1. There’s no games about that. That shall be the result. And as I said publicly on the platform I won’t decide because, in terms of representation, I have to go back to my constituency and my party and get from them a direction. It can go either of three ways- either UNC, either PNM, or I could say listen, if you want to get my vote make me the head of the Government. And of course whatever I do would be in the interest of Lopinot/Bon Air West.”

Jack is seen as a fraud and opportunist in today's T&T. He will be lucky to win 500 votes so he is dreaming of winning a seat. If you betting on him winning that seat you have money to lose

From what I am hearing things seems to be running smooth. Voters are calling in to radios stations and they are praising the ECB.
Even the biggest critics in the talk shows are praising the ECB.
A real mature democracy at work here.
I expect the official result to come in at 8 pm and a swearing in the morning

Chaos at Gulf View Community Centre
Attorneys representing UNC candidate for San Fernando West Sean Sobers are planning to write to the Elections and Boundaries Commission returning officer to rectify some problems at the Gulf View Community Centre which houses three polling stations.
As part of the COVID-19 regulations only one door was being used for electors to exit and enter the facility, but this triggered a bottleneck which lasted for hours.
When Guardian Media arrived on the scene, the lines stretched all the way to the Gulf View Link Road. Hundreds of people stood under umbrellas in the sweltering heat.

"Our candidates in several of the marginals are in the process of filing for recounts, because the numbers are so close the recounts can be done. Only then can we concede or claim victory. So that's the way forward for us.
In any election , recounts are normally asked for. What is the big problem?
