Marigot:---The election for the Junior Territorial Council began yesterday at the French Quarter College. Four students from that school manage to secure a seat in the council which is to be formed shortly. Those elected are Davilla Joseph, Terry Maclauren, Miguel Agramonte and Caseem James. Some 44 students out of the 130 votes that were casted choose those that were elected.
The election took place at the Lycee Polivalent which has seven seats, College Mont des Accords has four seats, Souliga College allotted four seats and one seat will be taken up from the private schools. While three persons outside of the school system will have the chance to sit in this council.
When the 23 members are elected they would then select their President and four vice presidents. The junior council will be a copy cat of the existing senior territorial council.
The idea is to give the youths on St. Martin the opportunity to participate in the day to day running of the country the youth's affairs department said in a previous press conference.
