Despite losing by a majority of about 1,700 votes to BN candidate P Kamalanathan, PKR Hulu Selangor candidate Zaid Ibrahim vowed to soldier on.
Obviously dejected, Zaid who was accompanied by his family, assured his supporters that this defeat does not mean the end of his fight for reforms in the country.
The lawyer said this while addressing about 300 disheartened PKR supporters at the Kuala Kubu Bharu mini-stadium after PKR chief of strategy Tian Chua broke the bad news.
