Sibu Election Results

Official results from The Star 10:07:44 pm : DAP wins

Malaysiakini 10:09 pm:

10.09pm: All top DAP leaders are waiting at Wisma Sanyan, where the postal ballots were counted.

Lim Guan Eng tells Malaysiakini that he is worried “something suspicious could be going on” and he hopes that the Election Commission officials can release the Form 15, a document which certifies the final result of the postal ballots.

Should it be true that BN has won the postal votes by a margin of 2,300, then DAP will be declared the winner of the Sibu by-election with a tissue-thin majority of 300 votes.

It is confirmed that Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin has returned to Kuala Lumpur.

There is no movement at the main tally centre in Dewan Suarah in Sibu. The official tally still indicates that 16 boxes, including the postal votes, are yet to be sent to be included in the final result.

9.50pm: DAP supremo Lim Kit Siang questions the hold-up in the Election Commission's announcement of the 2,571 postal ballots.

"The postal ballot counting started at 5.30pm and finished at 8.30pm."

He asks why there is more than an hour delay in the announcement of results.

"Up to some trick?" he wonders aloud.

JR: No doubt Najib doing his worst to prevent a DAP victory

Post Mortem: Malaysians disgusted by Najib's bribes and the Election Commission's underhand tactics to secure a BN win in face of a potential DAP trashing

"If this was India, Najib would be shown the prison for telling the voters that he will sign the cheque only on Monday once they have voted BN. The late Indira Gandhi was jailed for using the government helicopter for election (campaign) trips."
- Ramachandran Muniandy

Joceline Tan: Will Najib take the blame for BN's loss? (Apparently the tide turned to Pakatan AFTER his visit!)

Will Sibu Teach BN a lesson?

Or are East Malaysians easily bribed?

After decades of neglect by the BN government will Sibu show that East Malaysians can be easily bribed with (no less than) a few million ringgit or will they stand up and show the BN government that they the people are actually the boss.

Will they allow BN to continue with their years of nepotism, racism and hypocrisy or can they just forget about the past and enjoy the money while it last?



Will they show BN the door or will they show acceptance to people like Ibrahim Ali, Abdul Taib and Khir Toyo (all very healthy products of BN).

We the people in the peninsula hope they are indeed wise enough and not let BN continue to hold all of us in ransom while they enjoy the spoils of the nation.

VOTE WISELY!
