Tony Pua ousted in Selangor DAP election

Damansara MP Tony Pua has been ousted in the Selangor DAP election.

Pua, who was the incumbent Selangor DAP chief, vied for one of the 15 leadership positions, but had indicated that he did not intend to continue heading the state chapter.

However, he failed to make into the top 15 after today's election.

The state DAP election is a two-tiered process where delegates only vote for the top 15 candidates that they want to see in the leadership.

These candidates will then vote among themselves on who will occupy the respective positions, including the position of chief.

According to the election results, Pua came in at 19th place, with 292 votes – tying him with first-term Bandar Utama assemblyperson Jamaliah Jamaluddin.

The top 15 winners are as follows:

1. Ng Sze Han (491 votes)
2. Tiew Way Keng (463 votes)
3. Ronnie Liu (442 votes)
4. Ng Suee Lim (439 votes)
5. V Ganabatirau (429 votes)
6. Lau Weng San (421 votes)
7. Lee Ching Hung (410 votes)
8. Lee Fu Haw (400 votes)
9. Gobind Singh Deo (393 votes)
10. Lai Wai Chong (391 votes)
11. Ean Yong Hian Wah (384 votes)
12. Tee Boon Hock (345 votes)
13. Teng Chang Khim (335 votes)
14. Ong Kian Ming (324 votes)
15. Lee Kee Hiong (302 votes) - Mkini
