While the combined strength of the two coalitions could result in a secure win for BN candidate Datuk Zulkiflee Mohd Zin in the Taboh Naning seat, Fadhli urged vigilance and large-scale voter turnout. He emphasized that complacency could provide an opportunity for Pakatan Harapan to make a late comeback. Fadhli also appealed to outstation voters, urging those in Kuala Lumpur and overseas to return home and vote, warning that complacency could lead them to underestimate the importance of their participation in the election.",
