Thirty polling stations across Barbados were opened today to facilitate early voting for the February 11th, 2026 General Election.
Between the hours of 7 a.m. and 5 p.m., special voters consisting of election officers, police personnel and other members of the public service cast their ballots, exactly one week ahead of the national poll.
At the Christ Church East Central Polling Station located at the Wildey Gymnasium, Wildey, St Michael, returning officer Michael Fields said it was a smooth flow of people who showed up to make their votes be counted.
Barbados Labour Party candidate for Christ Church East Central, Ryan Straughn, visited the polling station to observe that procedures were in place and that all voters on the list were aware that the special early day was available for them.
Some voters said the process was relatively easy but encountered some challenges in locating the room when they arrive as signage was not yet in place, however Fields assured that all the correct guides would be in place come election day. (JRN)
