Singapore GE2020: All 93 seats likely to be contested on Tuesday singaporevotes

Members of 11 opposition parties are gearing up to field candidates for every seat ahead of Nomination Day on Tuesday, and some seats could see three-cornered fights.

Party chief Pritam Singh said at the session that its goal of winning one-third of seats in Parliament remains unchanged, even if it is not contesting enough seats to achieve the target at this election.Mr Singh last year set the target of denying the People's Action Party a supermajority, though he had said then that a lot would depend on the performance of the party at the next election.

The WP also confirmed its slate for Aljunied GRC, saying three members of its existing team - Mr Singh, party chairman Sylvia Lim and Mr Faisal Manap - would remain there.
