Electoral cooperation talks between Pakatan Harapan and BN for the Negeri Sembilan state election are expected to go on smoothly as there are no “major issues” to solve, PKR deputy president Rafizi Ramli said.
According to him, this includes seat negotiation matters.
“The electoral track record of Harapan and BN component parties is consistent, so there wouldn’t be issues of who would win ‘bigger’.
“I don’t foresee any issues with finalising and refining electoral cooperation in the state. Furthermore, there are not many seat overlaps in the state, and the strength of each party is clearer,” Utusan Malaysia quoted Rafizi, who is also PKR election chief, telling reporters after attending the party's 2023 Election Convention in Seremban, last night.
“I hope there will be ‘give and take’ in the negotiations, and the talks will go on smoothly.”
Also present at the convention was Negeri Sembilan Menteri Besar Aminuddin Harun.
According to Rafizi, the presence of Aminuddin and BN deputy chairperson Mohamad Hasan would make the process easier as both are leaders renowned for their loyalty to their respective parties.
Yesterday, Aminuddin said the Negeri Sembilan state legislative assembly is expected to be dissolved in May to pave the way for state polls.
The six states that will be holding their state polls this year are Selangor, Penang, Negeri Sembilan, Kedah, Kelantan, and Terengganu.
Harapan won 20 out of the 36 state seats in the 14th general election (GE14) in 2018. The remaining 16 seats were won by BN. - Mkini
