We want our readers to evaluate whether the ruling party has the popular support to stand against a viable opposition. We will also compare the votes of the contestants in the next issue so that one would be able to evaluate the voter turn out in each constituency. This is time for the Gambian Nation to engage in a debate as to whether the country needs candidate change or election system change.
