Mukriz Mahathir cheated in elections?

Wednesday, 12 March 2008 02:43

Got an interesting mail today. It says:

Proof that Mukhriz Mahathir, son of Mahathir Mohammad, cheated in the 2008 Malaysian General Election !!

Mukhriz Mahathir ran for the P5 Jerlun parliamentarian seat at Kedah. SPR officially announced that Mukhriz Mahathir won with a 2205 vote majority.

But there’s a catch - In the P5 Jerlun parliamentarian race, 99.85% of the 37,297 voters turned out to vote !!

Hard to believe? You bet it is !! According to SPR’s official result (available at http://pru12.spr.gov.my/spr/ )

– of the 37,297 voters, 37,242 came out to vote.Put it another way - of the 37,297 voters, only 55 voters have failed to vote !

Yes, I kid you not ! You can go check out the SPR official result yourself ! The 99.85% turnout rate is ABSOLUTELY THE HIGHEST of all the 222 parliamentarian races in the election.

Anil

On your posting on Mukhriz election, you mentioned that there was 99.85 %
voting.

According to the electoral list, for Jerlun electorate, the total registered
voters were 45,513 and the total turnout was 37242.

The registered voters stood at 45,513 and NOT 37,297 as you mentioned.

Actually the turnout was 81.8 % and not 99.85 % .

You may want to clarify your figures so that there is no confusion and cause
unnecessary alarm even though Mukhriz is from UMNO.

is obvious that there is something wrong on the SPR website stats.
If you look at the DUN seat, the P5 total voters is 19771 25742 = 45513.
Thus voters turnout is 81.8% which is about right.
So I think this is just wrong stats from SPR site. you can check on other
site for the stats.

Simple stats also SPR can get it wrong..

*ATTENTION ALL MALAYSIAN. My Colleagues Bro is an Army, they voted two days early and he told us that the Army leader will 'Cross' all the voting slip on behalf their Army junior. If the Army want it privacy also, the senior will be in front of you to see who you vote. This source is true. No Transparency ! If we dont solve it now.. coming election Opposition will lost again to BN if they put more army vote in all the area!

*I really hope all PAS/Keadilan and DAP check on this!

Right or wrong SPR stats, doesn't matter. With the nonsensical cancellation of the use of indelible ink, no one can be absolutely 100% sure that Mukriz did not cheat.
