By Horace Palacio: As Belizeans prepare to cast their ballots on March 12, 2025, the nation is on the verge of a major democratic milestone—its 10th general elections since gaining independence in 1981.

Since breaking away from British rule, Belize has successfully held nine national elections, demonstrating a stable democratic system. Over the decades, the country’s political landscape has been shaped by peaceful transitions of power, primarily between the People’s United Party (PUP) and the United Democratic Party (UDP). However, as the nation approaches its 10th election, political analysts believe the stakes are higher than ever.

Issues such as crime, the economy, public health, education, and governance reforms are at the forefront of campaign discussions, with voters weighing their options carefully. Additionally, this election sees a new wave of young voters, many of whom are expected to influence the final outcome.

One of the key highlights of this election is the introduction of new digital tools, including the Belize General Election 2025 App, which will allow citizens to monitor election progress in real time, promoting greater transparency and engagement.

As Belize reaches this historic political milestone, voters are being encouraged to exercise their right to vote, reinforcing the strength of Belize’s democracy and ensuring that the nation continues to move forward with strong leadership.
