Jamaica's first woman premier, Prime Minister Portia Simpson Miller, has refused to concede defeat after officials said the main opposition Jamaican Labour Party won a close vote.The JLP won 31 out of 60 parliament seats in Monday's election, against 29 for her People's National Party (PNP), electoral officials said. "However perplexing some may find the results, the fact is that the people have spoken," said JLP leader Bruce Golding."As of now, we're conceding no victory to the Jamaica Labour Party," the prime minister told supporters at party headquarters late Monday.
