KUALA LUMPUR, July 9 (Bernama) — The Selangor Election Commission (EC) has refuted the claim by the DAP that the opposition party did not receive sufficient voter registration forms.
Selangor election director Dzulkifli Ab. Rahman said from January to June this year, 11,150 voter registration forms had been given to the DAP.
“However, the DAP has only returned 8,733 forms (78.3 per cent) which means 2,417 forms (21.7 per cent) are still with the party,” he said in a statement here Friday.
Dzulkifli said out of the forms returned, 902 (eight per cent) were rejected by the EC for reasons such as incompletion, duplication or incorrect address.
“The statistics clearly show that there was no shortage in form distribution to the DAP for the first six months of the year,” he added.
