## Resource

Amanza Walton of Forward Guyana is sparking a political firestorm by proposing a three-way split of the three GECOM opposition seats—APNU, WIN, and her party—to avoid a winner-take-all showdown and push for real electoral reform. Amid internal opposition tensions and fears of alienating voters or triggering legal battles, Walton insists this compromise is vital for democratic integrity. Meanwhile, current commissioner Vincent Alexander warns against politicizing GECOM appointments, stressing the law’s intent to shield commissioners from pressure, while still calling for systemic overhaul inspired by regional models. Walton also flags a troubling shift in parliamentary oversight, noting the Economic Services Committee’s reduced frequency as a sign of government evasion, and continues her legal battle at the Caribbean Court of Justice to challenge ballot access rules and break the two-party mold. Despite WIN and APNU’s attempts to sideline her, Walton’s nominations were rejected under the official formula, highlighting the bitter power struggles shaping Guyana’s opposition.
