11.48pm: An analysis of Penang's results shows that DAP won all 19 state seats with higher majorities. PKR took 10, and PAS one at Permatang Pasir. Pakatan had an increase of one seat.
BN won three Parliament seats - Balik Pulau, Tasek Gelugor and Kepala Batas, and 10 state seats. BN lost one state seat, but has an  increase  of one Parliament seat compared to the last election.

This is a worse defeat than to 2008. Indeed MCA and Gerakan are completely slain in Penang.

A total whitewash of MCA and Gerakan candidates showed that the Chinese community have made up their minds about wanting to change the federal government as well.

The results also showed that wrong selection of candidates cost PKR dearly in Balik Pulau and Umno in Seberang Jaya.

The support of the Chinese community have surged, probably due to BN's overdoing in its campaign via 1Malaysia Penang Welfare Club, which has been throwing money in areas where DAP was contesting. It shows Penangites rejects money politics.

Penangites have also been annoyed with the flooding of 1Malaysia flags all over the island, creating an eyesore in several heritage sites.

But it's unlikely there was a swing in Malay votes as both PKR and Umno lost Balik Pulau and Seberang Jaya respectively more to the wrong selection of candidates.

This led to internal sabotage as in the case of Umno.

In Balik Pulau, PKR's candidate's was not a local, and his loss confirms that rural constituents prefer someone from within their community.

At the close of the day, the presiding officer at the 8,245 polling stations across the nation will seal the ballot boxes in the presence of the candidates' polling agents.

All of them are to affix their signatures or seals on the ballot boxes. Then the Election Commission officer will compare the number of ballot papers issued based on his or her records with those not used in front of the polling agents. The numbers must match.

When all the ballot papers are accounted for, the presiding officer will reopen the boxes and proceed to count the ballots in front of the agents.

Each ballot paper will be shown to the agents as it is counted. Ballot papers which do not conform to the rules, such as spoilt votes, will be marked ‘rejected’ while the accepted ones will be added to the respective candidates tally.

After the votes are counted at the various polling stations, a statement of the results of the poll will then be sent to the returning officer at the central counting centre located in each constituency.

The returning officer, on receiving the results from the polling stations, will add all these votes, inclusive of postal votes, to determine the winner.
