Fadhli says low non-Malay turnout could help PN win Ayer Keroh
DAP has held the Ayer Keroh state seat in Melaka since 2008.
PAS information chief Ahmad Fadhli Shaari has told a podcast that the Perikatan Nasional (PN) could potentially win the Ayer Keroh seat in the Melaka election if non-Malay voters fail to participate in large numbers. Fadhli stated that if 70% of the vote transfer between the BN and PN coalitions occurs, PN could secure 21 seats while BN takes three, resulting in a combined total of 24 seats.
He suggested that if the vote transfer between the electoral allies reaches 80% or 90%, Pakatan Harapan (PH) might lose Ayer Keroh, which DAP has held since 2008. Ayer Keroh is the only mixed constituency in Melaka that has remained under DAP's control, while Bemban and Duyong were lost to PN and BN in the 2021 election. Fadhli also mentioned that PN is targeting Machap and Bukit Katil, where PN could gain an advantage if votes from BN are transferred.
Bukit Katil, previously won by PH's Adly Zahari, is expected to be a closely watched seat. The PN campaign, according to Fadhli, has intensified on social media, making Bukit Katil a "hot seat."
