2020 Update | Since the one seat system started in 2003, the OBA or UBP won the seat in all 4 General Elections, with Trevor Moniz winning four times, twice as an OBA MP and twice as a UBP MP. In early August 2020, Mr Moniz announced that he was retiring, which would have caused a by-election, however a General Election was called. In the 2020 General Election, this was one of 5 seats that changed from the OBA to PLP, with the PLP’s Vance Campbell earning a victory at the polls.
