DLP Leader Thorne register in wrong constituency

Sun, Feb 15, '26 at 5:31 AM

This is why DLP leader Ralph Thorne deserves to lose his seat. How can an opposition leader register in the wrong constituency?

According to Nation News:


President and political leader of the Democratic Labour Party, Ralph Thorne, was among those unable to cast their vote in the 2026 General Election today in Barbados.

Thorne, who has resided in Christ Church East for more than 20 years, was registered to vote in Christ Church South. His wife was able to successfully vote at the Sons of God Spiritual Baptist Church at Ealing Grove where he failed to find his name on the voters’ register.



They were urging me to go to Rendezvous to vote, but the position I take is that to vote in Rendezvous is to commit fraud, certainly as it relates to my address. So I consider that I have been denied the right to vote due to an administrative error by the Electoral and Boundaries Commission.”

Thorne, the Leader of the Opposition, was one of the foremost voices drawing attention to irregularities with the electoral list. Across the constituencies, there were reports of others who either dropped off the list, were registered in another constituency or at a different polling station.
