Social activist Mark Benschop and his Benschop for Mayor group were at press time losing badly to APNU+AFC and also coming behind Team Legacy in Local Government Elections yesterday in South Ruimveldt Park/Ruimveldt Industrial Estate.
Out of seventeen First-Past-The-Post (FPTP) Ballot boxes counted by Stabroek News last night in constituency 14, APNU+AFC’s Sherod Duncan was trouncing Benschop. From the 17 boxes, Duncan gathered 1,317 votes compared to Benschop’s 235. Benschop was also behind Saiku Andrews of Team Legacy who pulled in 405 votes.
