GE15: Additional ballot box for 10 parliamentary seats and two state seats - EC
16 Nov 2022 07:21pm
Decision to add a ballot box at each of these constituencies was after taking into account the size of the ballots papers.
The EC has identified 10 Parliamentary constituencies that have seven candidates or more, namely P9 Alor Setar, P62 Sungai Siput, P99 Ampang, P102 Bangi, P107 Sungai Buloh, P110 Kapar, P111 Klang, P112 Kota Raja, P113 Sepang and P115 Batu.
Apart from Parliamentary seats, two state seats will also see seven candidates or more contesting in the GE15, namely N47 Chenderiang in Perak and N66 Bugaya in Sabah
Ikmalrudin said the decision to add a ballot box at each of these constituencies was after taking into account the size of the ballots papers because with seven or more candidates, the ballot paper will also be bigger in size and would need more space to accomodate.
The EC has set Nov 19 (Saturday) as polling day. - BERNAMA
