KUALA LUMPUR — PKR central election committee (JPP) chairman Datuk Rashid Din said Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali has taken the lead, but yet to win the race for the party deputy president post.
“He (Azmin) is indeed leading, but yet to win,” Rashid said this when asked to comment on the victory announcement made by Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali’s camp in the race for deputy president post yesterday.
Rashid, when contacted by Bernama, said the vote-tallying process for the elections still pending due to thousands of ‘undi ragu’ (doubtful vote) had yet to be included and also the delay of the results of three divisions, namely, Tawau, Pensiangan and Julau.
“He (Azmin) is indeed leading, so the word ‘wins’ should be replaced with ‘leads’, as the vote-tallying process has yet to conclude, there are still lot more works for us (JPP) to do, the final decision will only be obtained after all ‘undi ragu’ being processed,” he said.
