#PNPvotes | Polls open for presidential elections

Amid light drizzle to heavy showers, People's National Party (PNP) delegates are turning out to elect a new president.

Some 3,400 delegates are voting in the election being run across the island by the Electoral Office of Jamaica.

THE CANDIDATES

Mark Jefferson Golding
Age: 55
Attorney at law
Member of Parliament, St Andrew South

Lisa Rene Hanna
Age: 45
Communication Specialist
Member of Parliament, St Ann South Eastern

The winning candidate will replace Dr Peter Phillips who has decided to step down following the party's crushing election defeat to the Jamaica Labour Party in the September 3 general election.

Dr Phillips will also be stepping down as Opposition Leader.

The polls have now opened for the @JamaicaPNP's presidential election. Who do you think will win? #PNPvotes
