KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 10 — The by-elections for the Pulai parliamentary seat and Simpang Jeram state seat in Johor ended yesterday with Pakatan Harapan-Barisan Nasional unity coalition emerging victorious.
This was despite expectations of protest votes from Umno supporters unhappy with the leadership’s decision to ally the party with PH and form the national unity government. In the past, much of Amanah’s support in Pulai came from non-Malay voters who were PH supporters. The low voter turnout for the Pulai parliamentary constituency was likely due to residents who did not bother to take a day off to return to vote.
In the 2022 general election, Salahuddin defended the Pulai seat with a 33,174-vote majority. His successor, Sulhaizan Kaiat, only managed to secure a majority of 18,641 yesterday. Observers on the ground indicated that Johor voters were unhappy with both PH and BN, and the low turnouts must be a wake-up call for party leaders.
