In this commentary, I repeatedly said neither political party has ever refused to concede. I was corrected by a viewer who reminded me that when Bruce Golding defeated Portia Simpson Miller, she threatened to be a terror to the then-JLP government.
I am unconvinced that a threat to be a terror is the same as refusing to concede defeat. I do recall the incident, but I also do not remember the full context in which former Prime Minister Portia Simpson Miller made those unfortunate comments.
Without trying to get into the mind of the inartful Portia, I believe that she meant that she would be vigilant in opposition, particularly because of the slim margin by which the JLP had secured the victory.
