First came wor­ried faces. Then sad looks. Dis­ap­point­ment, shock, and un­con­trol­lable tears fol­lowed.

This was the scene at the Peo­ple’s Na­tion­al Move­ment (PNM) head­quar­ters at Bal­isi­er House, Port-of-Spain, last night.

Sup­port­ers, who had gath­ered in an­tic­i­pa­tion of a Gen­er­al Elec­tion win for the par­ty, were left heart­bro­ken af­ter a crush­ing de­feat to the Unit­ed Na­tion­al Con­gress (UNC).
