Volunteers bring home more than 1,500 postal votes from Singapore

The same organisation brought home overseas postal votes in GE15

9:08 PM MYT

 

SINGAPORE – Malaysian volunteers part of the ‘VoteMalaysia’ initiative on Friday successfully brought back another 1,511 postal votes from Singapore for the six state elections.

1thirdmedia Movement, one of the movements teaming up with Undi18, managed to collect the postal votes from Malaysian voters working and residing in the island republic since August 5.

The team had done the same during the Johor State Election and the 15th General Election (GE15).

A volunteer, Farrah Diyana Mohamad Ali, said they applied the same strategy by setting up five collection zones to cover the central, eastern, western, northern, and southern areas of Singapore.

“There are two waves of delivery to the sorting centre in Kuala Lumpur this time via land and air transportation,” said Farrah Diyana to Bernama.

“The first dispatch of 1,494 votes was conducted on August 9 and the remaining were dispatched today through Malaysia Airlines sponsorship,” she said.

Meanwhile, Undi18’s Twitter noted, up to 10:30pm August 10,  the number of postal votes it collected was 2,171, representing 27.2% of the 7,972 total number of overseas postal voters under Category B1 (Malaysians residing abroad).

The deadline for postal ballot papers to be received by the Returning Officer is before 5pm on August 12, which is the polling day in the six states.

During GE15 last year, the VoteMalaysia initiative managed to bring home more than 35,000 postal vote envelopes from around the world, representing 73% of the total number of postal votes for the 1B category.

On Saturday, about 9.67 million electors will decide the future of the six states: Selangor, Negri Sembilan, Penang, Kedah, Kelantan, and Terengganu. – August 11, 2023
