Parti Pejuang Tanah Air (Pejuang) still hopes that Perikatan Nasional (PN) will consider its request to join or cooperate with the coalition in the upcoming state elections.
Its president Mukhriz Mahathir said Pejuang does not want to be perceived as spoilers who split the Malay votes.
He said consolidating efforts towards securing those votes was the best approach for PN to face rivals Pakatan Harapan dan Barisan Nasional.
Mukhriz said Pejuang’s aim in contesting was not to dominate politics, have grand designs for top positions, or rule any states.
“We are aware of our limitations,” he told reporters in George Town today.
He added that PN’s response to the matter has been inconsistent before this latest request, but Pejuang remains hopeful of a favourable outcome.
Voters in Selangor, Kedah, Kelantan, Terengganu, Penang and Negeri Sembilan will go to the polls on Aug 12, following the Election Commission’s decision to hold simultaneous state elections in the six states.
