GUYANA’S People's Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) seems to have a huge lead in the election race which, if it wins, will give President Irfaan Ali a second term in office.

Partial figures from the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) on the afternoon of September 3 showed the PPP with 220,489 votes in eight of the ten districts. The We Invest in Nationhood (WIN) party, founded three months ago, had the second highest number of votes at 98,152.

PPP won seven districts while WIN captured one. Official tallies for regions five and seven are pending.
