Welcome to Politics
For news and discussion about Malaysian politics.
Here are some basic rules:
This seat is interesting to watch, as BN won with slim majority in 2008 and 2013 against PAS, and PH won 56% of votes in 2018 in a 3-corner fight. The PH (Amanah) incumbent now faces a straight contest against the Gerakan president.
Voters who are inclined towards PAS are unlikely to vote PH as sign of protest, but might sit this election out. Nons make up 35-ish % of the electorate. Turnout makes a key difference in winning this seat.
