Rantau by-election showdown begins tomorrow
In GE14, Mohamad was declared the winner of the seat for Barisan Nasional after Dr Streram, an anaesthetist, the potential Pakatan Harapan candidate, was prohibited from entering the nomination centre to submit his nomination papers because he did not have a pass issued by the EC. — Picture by Firdaus Latif
The by-election has been necessitated by the Federal Court dismissal of an appeal filed by Mohamad to set aside the November 16 Seremban Election Court decision declaring his unopposed victory in the 14th general election null and void. A total of 11,283 voters or 55.11 per cent of the electorate are Malay, 3,849 or 18.80 per cent Chinese, 5,336 or 26.06 per cent Indian and four or 0.02 per cent others.
Election Commission chairman Azhar Azizan Harun today came out with the usual reminder to all potential candidates and political parties on the dos and don’ts of the by-election.
