The Electoral Office of Jamaica (EOJ) has confirmed that the final count for the September 3, 2025, General Election is now complete, with the ruling Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) re-elected and securing majority votes in all three by-elections.
The EOJ dismissed social media claims of irregularities, including reports of missing or uncounted ballot boxes and inaccurate spoiled ballot figures.
“The EOJ would like to remind the public that the preliminary counting of ballots took place in the presence of indoor agents representing at least two candidates/political parties, and in some cases in the presence of election observers. Ballot boxes were accompanied by the indoor agents and escorted by the police to the counting centres,” the office said.
The office confirmed that “all 7,294 general election ballot boxes and all 109 local government by-election ballot boxes have been accounted for, and ballots were counted at the final count at the counting centres in the presence of candidates and/or their representatives.”
Candidates wishing to lodge complaints or objections are asked to use the legal channels available. The EOJ also urged the public to rely on official communication channels and avoid spreading misinformation.
The September election results saw the JLP re-elected with 35 seats, while the Opposition People’s National Party (PNP) won 28 seats.
