“I believe in my heart that history will be made on December 1st,” Rambally told supporters at a public meeting in Derisseaux on Wednesday night. “When Shandalee Harracksingh will join Lisa and will join Sister Emma, we will break that barrier. There will be three women in the House of Assembly.”

Rambally said this moment represents far more than an election, it is a decisive chapter in Saint Lucia’s political evolution, with Micoud South at the center of it.

Addressing a crowd energized by earlier speeches from Prime Minister Philip J. Pierre and Harracksingh herself, Rambally declared that the constituency and the country stand at a historic crossroads.

“This is no ordinary time. What’s happening in Micoud South and in this country is special. We are at a defining time in the history of this country.”

She thanked the people of Micoud South for receiving Harracksingh with openness and respect during her campaign rounds.

“I want to thank you for opening your door when Shanda knocked,” she said. “And I want to thank those who may not have opened their door yet, but you opened your window. Because you know this is a special moment.”

Rambally, who first entered politics in 1997 and served under the cabinet of Dr. Kenny D. Anthony, said Harracksingh embodies exactly what the constituency needs.

“When your belly hurts you and you need to call somebody, you want people like you,” she said. “Shanda is your neighbor. Shanda is your sister. Shanda is your cousin. Shanda is from here. The choice is very clear.”

She praised Harracksingh as a symbol of community service and integrity, qualities she said the people of Micoud South can trust.

“In Shanda Harracksingh, you can be well pleased,” she said. “You have the woman for the job at this time. You have the best option for the job at this time.”

Rambally used her own political career as proof of the Saint Lucia Labour Party’s commitment to nurturing new leaders.

“I am a testimony of the investment the Labour Party makes in young people and in women,” she said. “Inexperience is not a deficiency, it is an opportunity.”

She assured constituents that Harracksingh is entering a party and a government that will support her fully, just as the party supported her more than two decades ago.

She told supporters that December 4 is not about political conflict, but about collective progress and the protection of Saint Lucia’s future.

“This is not a fight,” she said. “Our country is in safe hands. And Shanda has joined to ensure that we keep Saint Lucia moving in the right direction.”

She closed with a call to action.

“Trust yourself. Trust the movement taking place in Micoud South,” she urged. “And don’t stop knocking on the doors.”

Rambally thanked the constituency “in advance” for what she believes will be a historic decision for Saint Lucia.

“When the people of this country know something special must happen, we all move in the same direction,” she said. “I trust you to do the right thing for your children, for the next generation, and for this country.”
