Live – 2018 general election results
In the 2008 general election, the turnout was 76%. In 2013, it was 85%. Can we match that this time around or at at least exceed 80%? (It was 69% at 3pm.)
As 5pm approaches, apparently many are still in line in some places. Bersih has issued an announcement for people to remain in line. Voters who are still in the queue should be allowed to vote. Mahathir himself has asked the Electoral Commission to allow them to vote after 5pm as it is not the voters’ fault. Some queued for four hours before they could vote!
