Lawyer and legislature Cora Richardson-Hodge will be sworn in Thursday as the first female premier of Anguilla.
Her swearing is scheduled for 3:00pm local time.
Richardson-Hodge’s Anguilla United Front romped to a convincing victory winning eight of the 11 seats following Wednesday’s general elections.
Outgoing Premier Dr Ellis Webster, increased his margin in District 1, but most of the candidates of his Auguilla Progressive Movement lost grounds.
The AUF won four of the seven district seats, and all four of the islandwide contests.
In Anguilla voters have five votes – one for their district candidates, and four others, which is tallied from all the districts.
