Lloyd Jones Calls Out Political Mischief
Mon, May 11, 2015
On Friday, we told you about the unsigned email sent by some anonymous individual who claimed to speak on behalf of PUP voters in Belize Rural North that are opposed to Major Lloyd Jones replacing Arthur Saldivar as the PUP Standard Bearer in that constituency. Well, Jones has responded, saying that it's "pure political mischief". He refutes the criticism that he doesn't live in the area and so cannot represent it by pointing to three previous representatives, who served Rural North while not living there.

Jones goes on to acknowledge the rights of the authors of the email to avoid going out to vote on Election Day. He points out, however, that they wouldn't be punishing him because while he wants to win, winning by any means necessary is not his intention.
