Muhyiddin says BN targets 6,000-vote majority
KUALA KUBU BARU, April 25 — Even before polling closes, the Barisan Nasional (BN) says it is confident of victory in today’s Hulu Selangor by-election, with a majority of 6,000 votes targetted by the campaign.
Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said the 6,000-vote target was based on the majority obtained by BN in winning the three state seats within the parliamentary constituency in Election 2008.
“Two years ago we got around 6,000-vote majority from the three state seats so we are placing our KPI target at the same level,” he told reporters here.
Explaining his confidence, the deputy prime minister said that rough estimates showed that BN obtained 300 votes from one ballot box where it only received 100 votes in the last general election.
“But that is only an example,” he said.
