Jamaica elections update: Campaign Ads cease

With less than 24 hours to the election, the fierce political advertising battle, which had been waged across all media – including social websites, between the People’s National Party and the Jamaica Labor Party, is expected to come to an end.

The cessation of political advertisements and the non-issuance of opinion poll results at least 24 hours ahead of the December 29 general election form part of a historic agreement signed by the media, political parties, the Electoral Commission of Jamaica and the Broadcasting Commission.
