Upsets in Bermudian primaries

The first in a series of Progressive Labour Party primaries has produced two upsets and more familiar faces of the ruling party may soon disappear from Bermuda's political scene.



Controversial government consultant Rolfe Commissiong ended the nine-year run of incumbent Ashfield DeVent's when he was selected as the new candidate for the Pembroke South East constituency.



Meanwhile, in Hamilton South, Darius Tucker's short-lived career as a legislator ended after he lost a two-way battle against businessman and community worker Diallo Rabain.
