Deepavali Gift for Barisan Nasional

Barisan Nasional won Batu Sapi and Galas by election which was held yesterday. The Galas by-election saw a straight fight between the BN candidate, Abdul Aziz Yusoff and Dr Zulkefli Mohamed from PAS with the former winning with a big majority of 1,190 votes.

In Batu Sapi, 54-year old Linda had an unassailable lead from early on. In the end, she won with 9,773 votes versus PKR's 3,414 and SAPP's 2,031.

Nik Aziz, Tian and Dr Dzulkefli - down but not out!Her majority was a seemingly huge 6,359 votes because it is calculated by subtracting the next highest tally (PKR's 3,414) from her own.

Money politics came into picture again where fake ballot papers were handed out with cash inserted in the envelope.

In addition, Galas comes under Parlimentary area of Gua Musang which is run by "Ku Li" and he headed the mission to get back the seat from PAS.

Earlier at Batu Sapi, the widow used her emotions to attract all the lady voters and family men to ensure her sucess.

So looks like either you have money to play politics or you just cry so that people will vote for you. In addition, Ku Li is the real loser as he was in UMNO then formed Semangat 46 to work with PAS and jumped ship again to UMNO.
