From Lim Teck Ghee

In an earlier article, I had identified moral outrage as being the game changer in the general election.

When analysing the key factors that can influence the voter in the polling booth, one can approach it from different angles.

Among the possible factors are those that relate to the state of the economy and government. Hence the concern over rising prices and inflation, corruption and other abuses; perception of neglect; and feelings of deprivation or marginalisation all play a role in voter choice.

Opinions of what the competing parties stand for in their policies and are likely to accomplish are, of course, also important. This is why time and effort are given by parties to election manifestos and publicising the superiority of their policies over those of rival parties.

But perhaps the important consideration that influences voters – more than election manifestos and policy promises – apart from moral outrage, is the judgment on the personality and the associated pull power of the top leaders.

In GE15, voters will be evaluating the leadership of the four competing coalitions – Anwar Ibrahim and Rafizi Ramli from PKR/PH; Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, Najib Razak and Ismail Sabri Yaakob from Umno; Muhyiddin Yassin and Abdul Hadi Awang from Bersatu/PAS; and Dr Mahathir Mohamad from Pejuang/GTA.
