Slim chance for Gerakan to compete in all 6 state elections, says analyst

[superadmin]

PETALING JAYA: It will be difficult for PAS to give way to Gerakan, its Perikatan Nasional (PN) ally, in the two states it controls due to its predominantly Malay voter base in those areas, analysts say.

They say this will dash Gerakan’s hopes of contesting in all six state elections as part of a multiracial unit.

The PN leadership has decided that candidates in PAS-controlled Kelantan and Terengganu will compete using the PAS logo, while those in Kedah, Selangor, Negeri Sembilan and Penang will run under the coalition’s symbol.
