'Someone has stolen my right to vote'
Several voters in Kulai and Klang have claimed that they cannot vote as some other people have done so in their names.
They are lodging complaints with the Election Commission (EC).
In Kulai, Chua Siew Pin, 42, arrived at the SJK(C) Batu polling station at about 10am and found that her name had already been used.
“I am waiting for the agents of political parties to help me. I will fight for my rights," Chua said when contacted.
She claimed that the EC officer then filled Form10 to ascertain her identity, but that she insisted on Form 11 - a declaration form to allow voting in the event of a dispute - be used instead.
“I am still awaiting the outcome,” Chua said.
Kulai DAP candidate Teo Nie Ching said she has received five to six similar complaints and that the voters are waiting for her at her service centre,
Teo, the incumbent Serdang MP, said Liew Ah Moy (right)went to SMK Kulai Besar at 10.30am, but that EC officers told her that she ‘has already voted’.
“When I checked Liew's fingers, there was no indelible ink mark,” Teo tweeted.
In Klang, PKR’s Dr Xavier Jeyakumar tweeted that two voters have protested because others had voted in their names.
“Use Form 11 and allow the genuine voter to vote,” Xavier tweeted.
