Umno may field Isham for ‘near-impossible’ fight in PKR seat
PETALING JAYA: Selangor Umno is planning to nominate Supreme Council member Isham Jalil to stand in a “PKR stronghold” in Selangor, says a party insider.
The source did not name the seat but said it had been a PKR stronghold since 2008 “and is considered ‘virtually impossible’ to win”.
At the 2008 general election, PKR had won in Hulu Selangor, Selayang, Gombak, Ampang, Subang, Petaling Jaya Selatan, Kelana Jaya, Kapar, and Kuala Langat. In 2018, the party won in two other seats, Pandan, and Sungai Buloh.
