PH leads in postal votes

NIBONG TEBAL: Pakatan Harapan led in the postal votes for the Sungai Bakap by-election.

According to a posting shared by PKR's Sim Tze Tzin on his Facebook page, PH's Dr Joohari Ariffin obtained 63 votes while Perikatan Nasional's Abidin Ismail obtained 56 votes.

There were a total of 39,279 registered voters in Sungai Bakap, including 57 police personnel.

Today's by-election involved a straight fight between Joohari and Abidin.

In the state elections last August, Pas' Nor Zamri Latiff defeated PKR's Nurhidayah Che Rose with a majority of 1,563 votes.

The by-election was triggered following the death of Nor Zamri on May 24.
