In Bamboo town, people probably only voted for Renward Wells because he was on a PLP ticket. Same as Cassius. He could only get the votes he got because he was on an FNM ticket. Maybe a good number of people, including FNMs, voted PLP to strictly vote out Ingraham when they voted in Bamboo Town. Not that they really cared for the PLP. They could just care about Ingraham less. The votes you see Cassius got were probably votes to try and save Ingraham and the FNM party. I think Mr. McCartney lost Bamboo Town because some of the voters in that area were more focused on destroying each other for the sake of destroying Ingraham and the name FNM and PLP. Then they say the next day, after they tear up each other, "We all Bahamians." Dacy, to me, it seem as if the people didn't reject Mr. McCartney the same way they did Mr. Ingraham. I think they recognized that Mr. McCartney was a good man and candidate, but they were just more focused on making sure Reward - like all of the other 28 PLP candidates - drop a beating on Hubert, Cassius, the FNM in Bamboo, and all the other constituencies in the Bahamas. And the people who voted for Cassius probably only voted to use him to stop Mr. Ingraham from getting that cut behind. So Mr. McCartney still sitting good, even if what you see now as a loss.
