So, Porsha Stubbs Smith did win the Bight (see p6 here). However, there are now three sources with results (RTC, Caribbean Elections and TC Weekly News), all of which have slight differences:

South Caicos: RTC and TCIWN have 69 votes for Keno Forbes, CE has 70
Leeward: RTC and TCIWN have 374 for Missick and 286 for Taylor; CE has 376 and 289 respectively
The Bight: CE has different results in its main section and the sub-page for the constituency. The latter matches TCIWN, whilst RTC has no result.
Cheshire Hall and Richmond Hill: TC Weekly News has different results for Parnell (461 vs 451 in the other two sources). The figures currently in the article for this constituency do not match any source.
Five Cays: TCIWN has Taylor on 263 votes; RTC and CE have her on 264. CE has different results in its main section and the sub-page for the constituency, where it has her on 274!

For now I have gone with the RTC results as I noticed they have added a final table at the end of the page detailing the constituency results. Number 5 7 16:34, 20 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

RTC was used last time and unlike the radio station we have more experience with their reliability. In my experience CE often has minor errors, so RTC would seem like the best bid.--Batmacumba (talk) 16:46, 20 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Yes, I noticed a few errors in their figures for earlier elections too. Number 5 7 16:59, 20 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
