Party spiritual advisor and Kelantan Menteri Besar Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat, in aFacebook posting several minutes before midnight, has asked voters to vote for Pakatan and lamented that Umno-BN is selling citizenship to foreigners in the bid to hold on to power.

Anwar however did not attend the rally in Penang island as he was in Perak and Selangor before arriving late in Seberang Jaya for the grand finale.
Seberang Jaya is nestled within the Permatang Pauh constituency, where Anwar has been MP since 1982.
Despite BN Permatang Pauh candidate Mazlan Ismail - who dubs himself as the "cleanest candidate" - claiming that he would trounce Anwar at this election, support for the former deputy prime minister remains solid.

10.30pm - Johor Bahru: The crowd at the Pakatan Rakyat ceramah in Kampung Melayu Majidee increased slightly to 300 when DAP leader Lim Kit Siang arrives.

10.30pm - Putrajaya: PAS Putrajaya and PKR have denied that a youth group dressed up as Pakatan supporters and causing mischief in Putrajaya tonight were their members.

The atmosphere is electric as the young and energetic crowd chant "Ubah" as it reverberates across the field.
There are no big guns coming to town tonight. Top speakers in this final ceramah include the parliamentary candidates for Segamat and Sekijang - Chua Jui Meng and Julailey Jemadi - as well as their respective state seat candidates.
