In 1992, opinion polls showed that she was on track to become PNP leader and prime minister, but she lost in a bitter race with outgoing Prime Minister Percival James Patterson. Patterson is scheduled to demit office in about four weeks' time. Patterson, 71, at his next birthday, is soon expected to inform Governor-General Kenneth Hall that Mrs. [Portia Simpson-Miller] enjoys the full support of all 34 PNP legislators in the 60-seat parliament and should be sworn in as head of government when Patterson demits office. This is a historically significant victory for women worldwide but for Jamaicans in particular. Portia has already made history and looks set to consolidate her place in the history books of the future by becoming Jamaica's first female prime minister. She has proven herse...

Barring a major mishap, Portia Simpson-Miller would have broken new ground this week, becoming the first female leader of a major Jamaican political party and the country's prime minister following the retirement of Percival James Patterson two days earlier.

She is the island's seventh prime minister. [K. D. Knight] appeared to have quit before he was pushed as he had openly questioned Simpson-Miller's "intellectual capacity" to lead the politically turbulent island of ...

Going into retirement with more than a year before Jamaicans are to vote again for a new government, [Percival James Patterson] has said that he hopes the transition would be smooth as the new PNP president takes over from him, guiding the party to a possible even if unthinkable fifth term. Patterson became PNP leader and prime minister in March 1992 when his mentor, [Michael Manley] retired and has won every election since in a country where voters get bored with ministers after two terms. Dark tall and wiry, Patterson is also widely regarded as Jamaica's first real Black prime minister though a much feared but kinky-haired Hugh Shearer occupied that position for severa...
