Bersatu tak jadi letak calon di Gadek
Bersatu tidak letak calon di kerusi campuran itu walaupun umum bertanding dua hari lalu.
In the recent Melaka state election, the Bersatu party has decided to withdraw from the race for the Gadek seat, without formally announcing a replacement candidate. This development is expected to result in a four-way contest at the polls, with four different parties vying for the position.
Bersatu had initially announced Zamri Abu Bakar as their candidate for the Gadek seat. However, their decision to withdraw leaves the field open for other parties to compete. The Gadek constituency, located in Melaka, is a mixed seat with a significant majority of Malay voters (60%), followed by Chinese (20%) and Indian (17%) constituents.
Historically, the BN (Barisan Nasional) party has held the Gadek seat since its creation in 2004. However, in the 2018 state elections, the People's Alliance (PH) party managed to take the seat, which was later recaptured by BN in the November 2021 state election through the efforts of MIC’s Vice President Shanmugam, who won with a 559-vote majority in a heated six-cornered race.
