Malaysia state polls: how a ‘wave of discontent’ in Selangor could drive referendum on PM Anwar’s unity government

“‘There clearly has been a swing in Malay support towards PN in GE15 and I would suggest that had continued since,’ Welsh told This Week in Asia, referring to the 15th general election in November. ‘The question is the scope of that [swing].’”

I'm really hoping that PRM and PSM could ripped off some left-wing votes from the Madani government. It not only gives chances to those small parties to participate in the parliament but also gain a foothold in the political centre as an alternative from both PH/BN coalition and PN.

@littleclover Does it really work in a first-past-the-post voting system though?
