Jack Warner's 18,767 votes in the May 24th General Election is perhaps the most votes ever secured by a candidate in any election in Trinidad and Tobago. It was clearly the most votes cast for any candidate in the recently concluded poll.
In 2007, Warner secured 11,147 votes. The additional 7,000 votes was surely a reflection of the work that he put in his Constituency of Chaguanas West as well as his national appeal as UNC Chairman.
In two separate polls conducted in 2008 and 2009, Warner was considered the most effective and industrious political representative in the nation. He was also considered to be one of the most efficient parliamentarians in the land. In Chaguanas West, he has led from the front answering to the needs of the people and fulfilling wishes.
In two years he has contributed to the development of the Constituency; in physical infrastructure, sports as well as religious and cultural expression. From Felicity to Caroni, he has touched the hearts of many with his benevolence, generosity and common touch. A run-away victory for him was therefore assured simply because of his track record.
Largely credited as the man who created the pathway to victory with his Movement For Change in 2008, Warner has quickly created a space as one of the most dynamic politicians in the Caribbean.
Given his contribution to international football, Jack Warner has also become an historic third world icon who continues to inspire the nation to pursue ambitions to finality.
