Voters in twin-island Caribbean nation to determine representatives amid Trump tariffs and rising cost of living
Voters in the twin-island Caribbean nation of Trinidad and Tobago (T&T) are going to the polls today in a parliamentary election described by analysts as one of the most unpredictable in decades.
Soaring crime levels, Donald Trump’s trade tariffs, and the rising cost of living have dominated the race between the two main parties, the ruling People’s National Movement (PNM) and the United National Congress (UNC). Voters will choose the 41 members of the lower House of Representatives for a five-year term.
