PER SECTION 11.3 of the framework of the CPP, the constituent Political Parties shall endeavor to reach a consensus in selecting the CPP’s Presidential Ticket. REGARDING THE CONSENSUS, the CPP shall first engage in a process seeking to select the CPP/Alliance’s Presidential, Legislative and other candidates through consensus. THE COMPETITIVE ENVIRONMENT of the ongoing CPP process and criteria for selecting its ticket to take on the ruling Coalition for Democratic Change in 2023 may be just what the doctor ordered. IT IS NO DOUBT A DEPARTURE FROM THE PAST when political parties selected candidates by way of anointment. A TOTAL OF thirteen political parties challenged Taylor in the ’97 elections.
