PHILIPSBURG--St. Maarten Christian Party (SMCP) is contesting the September 26 Parliamentary Elections with a slate of nine candidates. Party leader retired pastor Wycliffe Smith heads the slate. Smith told the press his party plans to run a "sober and proper" campaign that will inform the people about exactly what they are voting for - Members of Parliament. Following Smith on the slate are businessman Peter Gittens, pastor Mulrose Toulon-Sponsper, businessman Claude Peterson, educator Beverley Gibbs, tax consultant Benjamin Bell, civil servant Francelise Mauricia-Peterson, businessman Pedrito Arrindell and businessman Michael Somersall.
