SVG Elections 2025 Live: Voters Brace for Unpredictable Election

With 15 seats up for grabs, the general elections 2025 are a close contest between incumbent ULP and opposition NDP. Among the key issues for the voters in St Vincent and the Grenadines are the vulnerability to climate-related disasters, such as hurricanes and volcanic eruptions, which severely impact infrastructure and the economy.

Other significant challenges are environmental degradation (like plastic pollution and deforestation), urbanization strains (leading to flooding and infrastructure issues in Kingstown), and socio-economic limitations, which are compounded by a narrow coastal infrastructure and issues like child labour.
