- DAP looks set to capture the Sim Sim and Pulau Berhala voting districts which have the highest concentration of Muslim voters in the constituency.
However, it should be pointed out that Sabah Chief Minister Mohd Shafie Apdal and his Parti Warisan Sabah colleagues had been heavily campaigning in these voting districts as well. - From the unofficial count, it looks like Pakatan Harapan has done better in terms of postal and early voters, unlike the past three by-elections.
At the time of writing, assuming that the turnout rate is 55 percent, then DAP has attained an unassailable lead, capturing 73.95 percent of the vote share, according to an unofficial count.Some 150 DAP supporters at their operation centre are ecstatic. Each time new numbers are announced, they burst into cheers. 6.40pmestimates that the overall turnout is 55 percent. Based on that figure, then nearly half the votes cast today has been counted at this moment.
