The first THA Elections were held on November 24 , 1980 . The Democratic Action Congress led by A.N.R. Robinson won eight seats and the People's National Movement won four seats (a reversal of the 1977 County Council elections in which the PNM won seven seats and the DAC 4). The DAC went on to win the 1984 Elections by a margin of 11-1 over the PNM. The National Alliance For Reconstruction (into which the DAC merged in 1986 ) continued to dominate the THA winning the 1988 Elections ,and the 1992 Elections elections by an 11-1 margin over the PNM. It won the 1996 Elections by a margin of 10-2, with the PNM and an independent candidate winning one seat each. In the 2004 Elections the PNM gained control of the THA, winning eight seats to the NAR's four. The PNM consolidated their hold on the THA in the January 2005 Elections . The PNM currently holds 11 seats in the THA while the DAC (which reformed after splintering from the NAR in 2004 ) holds a single seat. |
