Archbishop of Port of Spain Charles Jason Gordon has called on citizens to “vote with discernment” in the upcoming general election.

“As our nation approaches the general elections on Monday, April 28, I invite you to remember your sacred responsibility to vote. This is not only a civic duty—it is a spiritual act, a moment of conscience where each voice helps shape the future of our country,” he said in a statement published Wednesday on catholictt.org.

“I urge you to vote with discernment. Reflect prayerfully. Ask not just what benefits us personally, but what serves the common good. Consider the character and integrity of those who seek to lead,” he said.
