Chad C. George to contest next elections on a party ticket
Mr George announced his decision during an interview with Virgin Islands News Online on Monday, May 25, 2026. He indicated, however, that he will not be contesting the elections as an independent candidate this time.
New party
While he did not disclose the name of the party he will be representing, Mr George mentioned that it is a "new party" that will be launched soon.
In the last general elections in the Virgin Islands, Mr George ran for the First District seat as an independent candidate, but lost to incumbent Dr the Hon Karl Dawson of the Virgin Islands Party (VIP).
Mr George informed our News Centre that he will share his plans and aspirations for District One following the launch of the new party.
In the meantime, George has been publicly voicing his opinion on various issues affecting the territory.

Try holding a conversation with him.
Mr. Dawson is a polite person with a caring smile but where has he been really? West End Dock? Cappons Bay shoreline? Carrot Bay shoreline? The back roads? Lighting throughout the district?
We commend the beautification project that was implemented by Hon. Mrs Lorna Smith throughout the territory and further funded by BVI Tourist Board under Luce our main road ways are up-kept s/o Chainsaw and Crew. He once held the Jr. ministry responsible for Agriculture and fisheries, one would think with a district who’s known for both would have benefited! Ha!
We once had a district rep who only saw a few, who paid credit cards and funded trips and played the Organ well someone who acted like he cared every 3yrs so he could be re-elected in the yr 4, someone who divided a district and left us embarrassed, neglected and forgotten.. Chad may not be everyone’s choice and that’s okay it’s time the first District be released from the shackles of the VIP! Let’s try something different. We get too caught up in this popularity contests that our people continue to suffer. Distracted by the misunderstandings of Power. They question the All 13 alleged party funders but do you really want to get into that topic party to party ? I challenge a journalist to list each political party funders and let’s compare! Virgin Islands voters we have the Power stop with this party politics and choose for a better future for these Virgin Islands!
Dude it’s NOT YOUR TURN
The district don’t want you
So if I get a raise but things have gotten more expensive my financial situation probably might not be any better than it was with the lower wages but things being less expensive. For this reason governments have to be caution about increasing minimum wage. A good a government may find ways to increase the government's revenues, which can translate to doing more projects, paying back loans faster, increasing civil servants salaries. Then they can implement policies try and change the way we do thing for better or for worst.
But I believe when people complain about the government it's because they are not happy with they financial situation and sadly for the majority no government cannot solve that. At least not the way the world operates.
