FNM ratifies Seabreeze and Englerston candidates
The Free National Movement (FNM) has ratified two additional candidates for the next general election.
The candidates – Maxine Seymour for Seabreeze, and Quintin Percentie for Englerston – were ratified on Tuesday night.
“Tonight, the Free National Movement proved their commitment to continuing reform and serving all Bahamians,” the party said in a statement.
“Two new candidates have been ratified that will bring new ideas to government and will work tirelessly to move The Bahamas forward.”
The FNM said each candidate will bring “fresh ideas” and a commitment to serving as a voice for Bahamians.
“The Bahamas will overcome the pandemic and, together, we will keep moving our nation forward for our children and grandchildren,” it read.
NASSAU, BAHAMAS As political parties continue efforts to jumpstart their political campaigns for the next general election, the Free National Movement (FNM) is close to wrapping up its full slate of ratified candidates.
According to FNM Chairman Carl Culmer, the FNM will name its remaining six candidates, including the seats held by the prime minister and deputy prime minister, in short order, though he did not provide an exact date.
The remaining seats include Englerston, Pineridge, Fox Hill and Seabreeze.
Prime Minister Dr Hubert Minnis and Deputy Prime Minister Desmond Bannister, the incumbents for Killarney and Carmichael respectively, are expected to be renominated for those constituencies.

With American politics so in our faces every four years and in between polling day, calls for our electoral system to take on more features of our neighbors to the north are often made in The Bahamas as a general election nears. One such call is for political leaders to engage in debates, to reflect a more mature approach to electioneering by making themselves available for questioning on a national platform.
