NASSAU, Bahamas — The Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) does not want Monique Pindling on its ticket for the next general election because of the negativity associated with her father’s legacy, the youngest daughter of former prime minister the late Sir Lynden Pindling charged on Tuesday, The Nassau Guardian reported on Wednesday, March 3.
PLP Leader Philip “Brave” Davis, however, yesterday denied the assertion.
After months of testing out support for a possible run in Mangrove Cay and South Andros, Pindling said she asked the party leadership for feedback.
After several attempts and no replies, she said she was finally told by the leadership of the party in summer 2020, “No, we are not going to run you. We don’t want a Pindling on the ticket.”
She said, “They alluded to something about negativity of my dad and didn’t want it to be the focus and things like that.”
Pindling, who appeared as a guest on the Guardian Radio 96.9 FM talk show “The Revolution” with host Juan McCartney, said she was “shocked.” See complete Nassau Guardian article at https://thenassauguardian.com/monique-pindling-says-plp-rejected-her/
