Each GRC poll result should be categorized into
divisions eg for Marine Parade GRC, number of voters
in Marine Parade Division who voted for GCT, the
number of voters in Macpherson Division who voted for
TPL so that people will be able to know the exact
support for each MP in the GRC team.
As reported in the Straits Times today (Page 10 Home), in the
last election 2006, the exact support for each MP in the Aljunied
GRC can vary quite significantly in some precincts
below 50%, 51%, 52% and more than 60% and the overall is 56.1%.
Surprisingly, it is the heavyweight minister that scored on the low
end.
Yup yup, like the report mentioned, the malays are strong
supporters of the PAP, hence for aljunied's case, the demographics
of bedok, and eunos are more than sufficient to neutralise the
hougang serangoon areas. Reasons for the close call in 2006
election. And since the boundary has now been redrawn to put in
kaki bukit, the WP really has an uphill struggle.
