Since embracing the new role as Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) standard-bearer for St Ann North West, Krystal Lee has had to split her time between that constituency and the Retreat division in St Mary Western, where she is the elected councillor.
But Lee said she has not neglected the division even though she has stepped up campaign activity in St Ann North West in a bid to defeat the incumbent member of parliament, Dr Dayton Campbell of the People’s National Party (PNP).
“For me, luckily, I have a very good team in the Retreat division in St Mary.
So whatever it is I can’t do in the division in terms of the representation, for example, say somebody wants us to come to a funeral, he ensures he is there, and that gives me the opportunity to meet with the people of North West St Ann,” Lee said of Robert Montague.
Lee won the division against the PNP’s candidate, Hugh Radway, in November 2016 by 99 votes.
