Prime Minister Andrew Holness became the first political leader to win three consecutive terms in office as the Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) won the general elections albeit with a significantly reduced margin.
In the 2020 general election, the JLP had won 49 out of the 63 seats at stake in the Parliament, but according to the preliminary figures released by the Electoral Office of Jamaica, the party won 34 seats as against 29 for the main opposition People’s National Party (PNP).
