Unbiased look at the Sint Maarten Elections
POND ISLAND, St. Maarten – The Election Watchnight Association (EWA) has thanked TelEm Group for assisting with online streaming arrangements which will allow the foundation to broadcast election results worldwide as soon as they come in during Friday's Parliamentary elections.
EWA has covered Island Council and Parliamentary elections since 1990, thanks to the dedication of the late Edgar Lynch and brother Egbert Lynch.
Family and friends associated with EWA aim to continue his legacy by providing the most comprehensive coverage and analysis of election results whenever elections are called.
Edgar's son, and now producer of this year's EWA coverage says with online streaming provided by TelEm Group, coverage will begin at 8:00 pm once the election polling stations have closed Friday.
The program will be aired live online thanks to the streaming links and will also be available to a worldwide audience.
Along with an extensive team working behind the scenes, viewers and listeners online will get historical outlook, up to date developments and pre-recorded interviews from program hosts, Gina Bruney, Myrna Lynch and Henry Lynch.
Edgardo thanked TelEm Group management for making the online streaming possible and for assisting in the family's aims to keep the Association relevant as an educational tool to present day St. Maarten.
"EWA was very dear to my father's heart and all of us in the family are pleased that, despite all the work that is involved, we can continue to develop our coverage and bring just the facts as they happen to St. Maarten homes and to the rest of the world," said Edgardo.
He said this year's coverage is a collaboration between EWA, St. Maarten Cable TV, AVS Video Productions and government's DCOMM information service.
"Members of the public can tune into our program by clicking on links provided by AVS Online, and sxmelections.com," said Edgardo.
