First-timer Neil Rowe has wrested the seat of St Michael North West from two-time incumbent Chris Sinckler.
He beat the ex-Minister of Finance 2 489 to 1 991 votes in Thursday’s poll.
The victory was confirmed by returning Officer Charles Haynes and Rowe’s entourage gave him a cheer sure to be heard throughout St Michael North West.
Rowe said his initial interaction with residents began three years ago and intensified once it was confirmed he would vie for the seat.
Sinckler never made an appearance at the Ellerslie Secondary. (IB)
