The Electoral Office of Jamaica (EOJ) is reporting that there has been a slight increase in voter turn-out for today's local government election.

Statistics released by the EOJ a short while ago showed that an average of just under 25 per cent of eligible voters had cast their ballot up to 3pm.

At 11 o'clock this morning 232,662 electors or 14 per cent of all eligible voters had cast ballots
