A total of 103 candidates, including political heavyweights, first-time contenders and independents, will vie for Negeri Sembilan’s 36 state seats on Aug 1.
Among the biggest names in the fray are menteri besar Aminuddin Harun, who has moved from his long-held Sikamat seat to Linggi, DAP secretary-general Loke Siew Fook defending Chennah, Umno deputy president Mohamad Hasan seeking a seventh term in Rantau, and Negeri Sembilan Umno chief Jalaluddin Alias defending Pertang.
Also contesting are PKR’s former Kapar MP G Manivannan in Jeram Padang and Bersatu information chief Tun Faisal Ismail Aziz in Sikamat.
Despite governing Negeri Sembilan together after the 2023 state election, PH and BN will now face each other in several seats after all 14 Umno assemblymen withdrew their support for Aminuddin in April over his handling of a royal dispute involving the Yang di-Pertuan Besar and the four undangs. The fallout led to the state assembly’s dissolution in June.
PH will contest all 36 seats on its own, while BN and PN have reached an electoral understanding under which BN will contest 25 and PN 11.
Bersatu, however, has broken away from the coalition and is contesting 24 seats under its own logo.
Other parties contesting in the election include Parti Sosialis Malaysia and Parti Orang Asli Malaysia, which are contesting one seat each.
Early voting will be held on July 28, while polling day is on Aug 1.
