St Lucians Informed That Outcome Of Presidential Election Will Have Little To No Impact On Them

Though anticipating with bated breath the outcome of today`s U.S. presidential election , St Lucians are being informed that the outcome will have little to no impact on their lives. Domestic issues like the economy , abortion rights and immigration are expected to determine the outcome of the political contest. The Democratic candidate , Vice President Kamala Harris is seeking to succeed President Joe Biden in the White House while the Republican`s chosen standard bearer is former president Donald Trump who served from 2016 to 2020. The St Lucian diaspora in the US , some of whom are eligible to vote , is expected to be concerned about the outcome of the election since major improvements in the economy could increase their spending power and ability to send remittances to relatives on the island.
