Third district candidate for the National Democratic Party (NDP), Kevin ‘OJ’ Smith, is now considering his options after losing to the Virgin Islands Party’s Julian Fraser in the November 7 general elections.

Smith, who resigned as Post Master of the BVI Post earlier this year to run for office, told BVI News that he has been offered several positions but at present he is taking “some down time” with his family.

“I have always had other options,” Smith said, though not commenting on whether these options were offered by the new government. He however noted that not all of his options are of a political nature.

“I can’t say right now but I’ll see as time passes by,” he said in response to whether he will accept a permanent secretary post if offered by his party.

Smith, the only challenger to incumbent district representative Fraser in the general elections, made an impressive debut at the polls, recording 557 votes to Fraser’s 613.

    What am i hearing here!!!! They took Eggy and Yellow to vote, and some of these same people does pass these two people on the road. God dont like ugly, maybe that is why you lost the elections. Maybe the government needs to do some thing to help these two individuals…. people stop playing with people minds…

    it is clear parole buddy is hurting, i guess you got paid off too but even though fraser got his 3rd district there is no more power with it and this is hurting him even more. he has no more minister office, and no more ride. his new office will be under sea cows bay community center. where he belong facing the ocean. all his projects will be investigated so he might be going to jail. OJ you are intelligent, smart, brilliant, respected and good for business, qualities fraser will never have. i can guarantee you no one will offering fraser a job in the near future but OJ you will hold that post.

Hope you don’t end up the jail before him!! You people always talking what you hear!! Do you have ANY documents to prove that Fraser did anything illegal. I didn’t think so, so HUSH YUH MOUTH!!! You have the right name too, you just envy Fraser!!!

            He obviously never encouraged you to finish school and learn how to structure a simple sentence RETARD!! LOL!!! We don’t have to look farther from Fraser’s camp to find men who cheat on their wives, don’t take care of kids etc. You really want to go there? LMAO!!! HAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!

            Ya’ll still got sour grapes, VIP LOST and wont see the Treasury for a long long long long time! Fraser can by a Lincoln? Of course he can!! All those kick backs must be worth something no? Digicel shares? Biwater shares? Nanny Cay? Aqua Design? While his slaves licking his crack getting cut bush and sidewalk jobs…so STUPID!! LMAO!! All were used and can’t go to him for nothing now lmao lmao lmao! Some even trying to convince people that they vote for NDP and OJ so please give them a wuk, NO!!!!!!!!hahhaahahhahahahahahahahaha!!!!

            OJ is more of a man than Fraser and his entire team! Put them up man for man, look at accomplishments! Before being ‘selected’ by Cills, then elected by the people, Fraser was a failed architect. Nobody even know what he did in the US! BOO man, not everybody stupid! Ya’ll can’t find nothing about the man record so you jump on him personally!! LOLOL!! Can’t wait for next HOA!!

        Shut your stupid mouth Frazer beat the pants off his A$$. The fact is for the next four years you have to deal with Frazer you all just cant get him move. It is OJ that have to look for a job Frazer still have his. Here is another job that OJ can get City Manager, Mark needs somebody to keep the dirty capitol clean.Frazer is like a big rock they are not easy to move.
