PENDANG: Kedah Umno will ensure its election machinery assists Pakatan Harapan candidates in constituencies not contested by Barisan Nasional during the upcoming state elections, says its chairman Datuk Seri Mahdzir Khalid.
He said Umno and Barisan are prepared for the polls and hope its united front with Pakatan will help candidates from both sides secure victory.
"So we are ready for both . For example, if the Tokai seat is contested by Pakatan, the Barisan division committee will assist as Pakatan will be the frontliner. "And if the Sungai Tiang seat is contested by Barisan, then the Pakatan team will assist us,” he said after attending a briefing on election preparations for the Sungai Tiang state constituency here today .
Mahdzir said Barisan-Pakatan seat allocations are expected to be finalised before Aidiladha, while also hinting that Barisan could contest at least 15 seats in Kedah this time around. "The two seats that have not been finalised is not really a big issue... Insya-Allah, sometime next week before Aidiladha, it can be resolved,” he said. - Bernama
