General elections were held in Dominica on 6 December 2019.[1] The elections were constitutionally due by March 2020, but had been widely expected to take place before the end of 2019.[2] The result was a landslide victory for the ruling Dominica Labour Party, which won 18 of the 21 elected seats, gaining three seats. With the DLP winning a fifth consecutive election, DLP leader Roosevelt Skerrit remained Prime Minister.
