PORT DICKSON: The Election Commission has declared Anwar Ibrahim as the winner of the Port Dickson by-election, beating six others to make a political comeback that assures him the top post in the government.
Anwar garnered a total of 31,016 votes, defeating his closest rival, PAS’ Mohd Nazari Mokhtar who gained 7,456.
His 23,560-vote majority surpassed that of former Port Dickson MP, despite a low voter turnout of 58.3%.
The other candidates were left far behind: former Negeri Sembilan menteri besar Isa Samad got 4,230 votes, Stevie Chan Keng Leong (337 votes), Kan Chee Yuen (154 votes) and Anwar’s former aide Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan who merely got 82 votes.
