The Dominican government has announced December 18 as election day in the country.

The next poll is constitutionally due next year, but Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit decided to call an early election.

Meanwhile, Nomination Day has been set for December 2.

The governing Labour party is seeking its third consecutive term in office.

In the May 2005 election, the opposition United Workers Party (UWP) won eight of the 21 seats in the island's parliament.

UWP leader Ron Green believes his party has a strong chance of forming the next government.
