Prime Minister designate, Gaston Browne led his Antigua and Barbuda Labour Party (ALP) to a crushing victory in the general elections on Thursday. 

Browne, 47, said from all indications, it appears that the ALP will win 15 of the 17 seats in the general election and welcomed the offer of outgoing prime minister Baldwin Spencer to work with his administration for the good of Antigua and Barbuda.

The Antigua and Barbuda Electoral Commission has not yet given the full results of the polls, more than 12 hours after the 164 polling stations closed.

It has only said of the six seats declared, the ALP has won five and the outgoing United Progressive Party (UPP), the other.

The outgoing Prime Minister Baldwin Spencer has conceded defeat as the main opposition ALP appears headed for a landslide victory a decade after it was booted out of office in 2004.

The election result has left Browne elated.
