One week after the Elizabeth by-election ended with no clear winner, PLP candidate Ryan Pinder filed a petition in the election court.

He will be represented by attorneys Philip "Brave" Davis, Wayne Munroe and Damian Gomez. Last week's one-vote win by Duane Sands led to a recount that put Sands up by one.

Now both parties will have a chance to investigate the election and decide whether votes should be added to or removed from the official count.

Progressive Liberal Party leader Perry Christie said it was wrong for Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham to suggest that the PLP has not paid for past Election Court proceedings.

Christie said Ingraham's statements at a recent press conference were meant to intimidate the five PLP supporters who voted on protested ballots.

What if there's a tie?

The Free National Movement plans to investigate Ryan Pinder's eligibility to run in the Elizabeth by-election if the result is challenged in court, Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham said.

Progressive Liberal Party leader Perry Christie said he is aware of at least 30 people who voted illegally in the Elizabeth Estates by-election. He also warned the Prime Minister not to make intimidating comments to the people who voted on protested ballots. Read more about Ingraham's comments in The Tribune or The Guardian.
