of the Cayman Islands 1999 Population & Housing Census and invited a
representative of the Census Office to meet with the Commission. Ms Sonia
Campbell, a Census and Survey Supervisor, appeared before the Commission and
explained the process used by the Census Office to collect population
data. She expressed confidence in the census
results and indicated that the population data was up-dated periodically. The
Commission noted the findings of the Census Report, particularly that on the

On
At all the public meetings, the Commission
was urged to retain the existing electoral district boundaries, if at all
possible.
Many political
leaders from the electoral districts attended the public meetings of the
Commission. The Speaker of the Assembly, Ms.Julianna O’connor-Connolly, and the Leader of the Opposition, Mr.
Kurt Tibbetts, as mentioned above, attended the
meeting in Cayman Brac. In

meeting. In the Bodden Town District, Ministers the Hon. Gilbert McLean and Hon. Roy Bodden, and former Minister and MLA Anthony Eden came to the meeting and made lively contributions. In the East End District, MLA Mr. Arden McLean also came to the meeting and made lively contributions. In the North Side District, the sitting MLA Ms. Edna Moyle and a former Minister, Mr. Ezzard Miller attended the meeting, and in West Bay MLA, Capt. Eugene Ebanks came to the meeting of that District.
A summary of attendance at the public
meetings in the respective districts is as follows:
West Bay 37
persons;
North Side 7
persons;
East End 3
persons;
Cayman Brac 11 persons; and
13. Equal
representation
The Commission is required to ensure that
the electoral constituencies contain, so far as is reasonably practicable,
equal numbers of persons qualified to be registered as electors. At the public
meetings held by the Commission, many questions were raised in respect of this
issue. There were suggestions that the respect for traditional boundaries and
electoral districts’ boundaries should be given priority over equality of
numbers of qualified electors. There were also strong suggestions that one
person one vote, in the context of single member constituencies, was preferred
and the Commission should consider parity in numbers for the proposed constituencies.
The Commission felt that, in order to take account of the various points of view, which members of the public put to it at the public meetings, and having regard to its mandate, it would seek to achieve a balance between traditional, electoral districts and natural boundaries, and parity in numbers of electors.
11
The Commission was mindful that the relationship between the creation of electoral constituencies and representative government has been and remains a central and sometimes controversial issue in societies striving for electoral democracy. There is considerable scope for differences of opinion within democracies regarding the best principles, rules and procedures and practices to adopt, as well as the best institutional mechanism to implement them. The boundaries of constituencies are usually constructed according to a formula in the constitution or electoral law of the country concerned. The provisions relating to the drawing of the boundaries of polling districts often revolve around the population or the size of the electorate in each district in the country. This primary consideration is frequently impacted upon by factors, such as topographical features, administrative boundaries, sparse population and poor communication means. The substratum of gerrymandering polling districts’ boundaries resides in the disproportionate distribution of the electorate in those districts.
In order to avoid unfair boundary delimitation, most jurisdictions provide for a deviation above or below the electoral or election quota, which is arrived at by dividing the number of persons qualified to be registered in the country, or the political unit to be delimited, by the number of legislative seats allocated to that country or political unit. The level of deviation above or below the quota will be a factor in determining whether unfairness in the demarcation of the boundary was in play. The shape of the boundaries of the polling districts may impact on their fairness, for example, diamond shaped boundaries, that is to say, that they are not contiguous, may be evidence of unfairness in the boundary construction. The presence of any or all these factors in the delimitation of polling districts’ boundaries is not necessarily proof of intentional gerrymandering. However their presence is an indication that the delimitation process should be carefully examined to detect any evidence of a pattern to manipulate the process.
12
This issue was explored in
The Court did not agree with the
plaintiffs’ argument and found that there was no constitutional requirement for
each polling district to have an equal number of electors and that there was no
right of each individual elector to participate in the electoral process on an
equal basis. According to the cases cited in court in that case, the United
States Supreme Court appeared to insist on mathematical equality, while the
Courts in

For the purposes of the foregoing

The Commission’s mandate requires it to take account of the registered persons as well as persons who are qualified but remain unregistered. The precise number of persons who fall within the latter category is unknown, but the Commission has been told that there could be as many as between 2000 and 3000 unregistered persons who are qualified to register. If indeed the figure were in the region of 3000, it would mean that more than a quarter of the estimated qualified persons remained unregistered. The Supervisor of Elections, Mr Gomez, informed the Commission that the Elections Office had carried out extensive voter education programmes from time to time designed to attract young qualified persons to register, but the results of such programmes were of limited impact. The inability of the Elections Office to attract qualified persons to register has resulted in the list of electors trailing a downward spiral since 2000, because there has been greater numbers of deceased persons removed from the list of electors than persons being added
14
to it. The situation has caused the Supervisor to consider the possibility of recommending the introduction of compulsory registration.
The Commission made appeals in the media
and at public meetings to the qualified persons to register. The high levels of
unregistered qualified persons posed one of the main constraints on the
Commission’s work. In order to minimise the effects of the unusually high
number of estimated qualified persons, the Commission used the latest official
List of Electors and the most reliable data available on the movement of
registered persons.
15. Single
Member Constituencies
The Commission’s mandate requires it to
divide the
The single member constituency is a tried and tested
electoral system, which is used by successful mature and emerging democracies
alike. Small and large States and territories use it. Single member constituencies
work best where there are inbuilt checks and balances in the system to prevent
the incidence of gerrymandering the boundaries of constituencies. By way of
examples, the Commission will cite a few formulae to deter the
creation of unfair electoral boundaries. The Malaysian
Constitution requires that the Election Commission review from time to time the
division of the Federation and the States into constituencies. In undertaking
any such review, the
15
Commission is required to apply certain principles including
the stipulation that the number of electors within each constituency in a State
ought to be approximately equal except that, having regard to the greater
difficulty of reaching electors in the country districts and the other
disadvantages facing rural constituencies, a measure of consideration in
respect of size of area ought to be given to such constituencies. Other
principles to be observed include the avoidance of constituency boundaries,
which crossed Federal or State boundaries. Regard was to be had to the
inconveniences attendant on alterations of constituencies and to the
maintenance of local ties.[3]
The Zambian Constitution provides for a temporary commission
to review the boundaries of constituencies. The boundaries of each constituency
shall be such that the number of inhabitants thereof is nearly equal to the
quota as is reasonably practicable. The number of inhabitants of a constituency
could be greater or less than the population quota[4]
in order to take account of means of communications, geographical features and
the difference between urban and rural areas in respect of density of
population.[5]
In the case of
16
The Jamaican formula provides that the
boundary of a constituency must not cross the boundary of a parish (an
administrative unit) and at least two constituencies should be in each parish.
Taking account of these two stipulations, the formula states that the boundaries
of each constituency should be such that the number of the electorate thereof
is as nearly equal to the electorate quota as is reasonably practicable.
However the electorate of a constituency can be greater or less than the
electorate quota in order to take account of varying physical features and
transportation facilities, as well as the difference between urban and rural
areas in respect of the density of population. The deviation allowed for these
reasons should not exceed the electorate quota by more than fifty per cent or
be less than sixty-six and two-thirds per cent of the quota. The “electorate
quota” means the number obtained by dividing the total of the electorate of all
the constituencies by the number of constituencies into which the country is to
be divided.
16. Delimitation

The Commission has delimited seventeen
constituencies in the
In its mandate the Commission was directed to ensure that
“Cayman Brac and
17
the Assembly”, whilst at the same time taking into account
the various factors mentioned in Subsection 28B of the Constitution. In light
of the fact that the Commission was directed to take account of natural
boundaries within the Cayman Islands and have regard to existing electoral
districts the Commission was of the view that East End and North Side also
deserved special consideration, despite their lower number of electors, as
these two electoral districts had in fact been operating essentially as single
member constituencies for some time and were distinct communities. Accordingly
no changes have been recommended for these two constituencies except for minor
adjustments to the North Side /
However, relative parity of registered
persons was always in the contemplation of the Commission, in accordance with
the mandate and in order to accommodate new additions to the register of voters
and registered persons who change address to new constituencies.
The Commission assigned names to each of
the seventeen constituencies as follows:
West Bay Northwest, West Bay Central, West
Bay East, West Bay South, George Town North, George Town Central, George Town
West, George Town South, George Town East, Prospect, Savannah/Newlands, Bodden Town West, Bodden Town East, North Side, East End, Cayman Brac East, and Cayman Brac West
and Little Cayman.
