Governor Julia Crouch says she has received the official results of Wednesday’s general elections that resulted in Cora Richardson-Hodge becoming the first woman to head a government in this British Overseas Territory (BOT).
Crough said that the results from the Supervisor of Elections, Rodney Rey, showed that the main opposition Anguilla United Front (AUF) had won the polls. “In accordance with Section 24(1) of the Anguilla Constitution Order, I will later today appoint Ms. Cora Richardson-Hodge as Premier of Anguilla. On the advice of the Premier, I will also appoint Ministers of the Crown and a Parliamentary Secretary,” said Crouch in a statement.
