Wait for tomorrow,” he told reporters after praying at the Jalan Tunku Kurshiah Surau, here on Friday.

He urged Negeri Sembilan residents to go out and vote early in the morning as the weather was uncertain.

“I hope everyone manages to go out and vote for us to choose the state government, this opportunity shouldn’t be wasted.
