The Democratic Labour Party (DLP) has concluded its internal deliberations, finalizing two candidates for senatorial appointment. The party’s governing council convened in a decisive meeting on Wednesday evening, reaching a consensus on their official recommendations. General Secretary Pedro Shepherd verified the completion of this process, indicating that the formal submission of names to President Jeffrey Bostic is imminent. While Shepherd maintained a discreet stance on the nominees’ identities prior to the official presidential communiqué, he affirmed the procedural milestone. Informed sources within the party’s upper echelons have strongly suggested that the selected individuals are party leader Ralph Thorne and former Opposition senator Ryan Walters. Thorne, a veteran of the previous House of Assembly who recently contested the St John constituency, and Walters, a candidate for St Michael North West in the latest general election, both faced electoral setbacks. The official swearing-in ceremony for all senators is slated for 2 p.m. today at State House, marking a significant step in the formation of the new parliamentary session.
