Shora.habib SG With the daring decision of Mr. Low Thia Kiang to challenge ALjunied GRC, what would be the fate of Hougang SMC? Would Desmond Choo of PAP yanked it away from WP after 20 years? BTW, anyone from Hougang SMC who have seen this Desmond Choo? How is he like and what are his chances?
ditzy SG Chances are, hougang and potong pasir will go back to PAP, in the meantime, aljunied will not.
Shora.habib SG Rednano, how would the dialect composition of hougang affect the voting results? care to explain further on the teochew part?
Cheongjungkang SG actually since ltk didnt want his ward albeit a higher calling for a grc bid, he still should not have left his supporters, who previously supported pap but during the 2006 had supported him, alone; for they had chosen to support the man and not the party. if it’s just for the party then it looks like they are the same as the rulers.
Edd1 SG Tomorrow will know who wins Hougang,Potong Pasir,Bishan-TPY,Tampines,Aljunied and the shocking results in AMK GRC. :D
ditzy SG AMK GRC will have results, but since James Gomez ain't in it, I ain't gonna give a shit about it.Aljunied might be the hottest,and I'm in it, but my eyes are on tampines.
soleachip SG my guess says WP wins hougang, PAP wins aljunied by an extremely small margin.oh well.. thankfully opposition parties are cushioned by the ncmp stunt. albeit the downgrade to 2nd class mp, at least we'll still be seeing mr low in parliament.
HyuugaNeji SG Singapore mainstream media shut off most talks and comments on hougang and potong pasir with a bid to win them back.
soleachip SG Singapore mainstream media shut off most talks and comments on hougang and potong pasir with a bid to win them back.imo traditional media will do what they've been doing for the past 5 decades in sg with few effects on the outcome of votes. baby boomers will still vote for whom they trust. opposition garners more votes this year due to increase in number of gen y voters, their accessibility to the www and higher level of socio political awareness. read this: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/may/06/singapore-elections-internet
