MODERATORS
Specific circumstances have caused this outcome in PRN 2023. What I mean is if people in this current situation had no choice for MUDA they could've not been bothered to vote for PH anyway.
if they had no choice for MUDA, the voters likely wouldn't have known that they've got a choice. even with conservative estimate, at least half would still have voted for PH because it's the next best alternative at that point in time.
also don't forget, there are a lot of young, competent and experienced candidates with bright ideas within PH that is just as passionate about issues that MUDA is passionate about. So it's not like PH could not achieve what MUDA is proposing to do.
PH should reflect why the other half would not vote for Zawawi Mughni even if presented with no other choice. He's at least 20 years older than Afriena and had the incumbency advantage. Also re: vote rigging Zawawi alleged there were ballots missing and filed a police report, but I believe this received less attention than blaming MUDA and Afriena.
im not sure how this relates to what we're discussing.
