People lined up in the early hours of the morning at the various polling stations across St Michael on Election Day in Barbados.

Some voters were already stationed outside the stations before the polls opened at 6 a.m.

There was a steady flow of voters at The St Michael School (St Michael South Central), more people were observed at the Barbados Community College (St Michael East) and it was a speedy process at the Parkinson Memorial School (St Michael South East).

Voters expressed a mixture of optimism, excitement and anxiety about the General Election and were happy they got to exercise their democratic right to vote as it was something the country’s forefathers fought to make happen. (AJ)
