PUTRAJAYA, Oct 17 — The Election Commission (EC) has set polling day for the Kemaman parliamentary by-election in Terengganu on Dec 2.
EC chairman Tan Sri Abdul Ghani Salleh said the nomination day is Nov 18, while early voting is Nov 28.
He announced the dates at a press conference after chairing a special meeting to discuss important dates for the by-election today.
The Kemaman by-election is being held following a decision by the Terengganu Elections Court last Sept 26 annulling PAS candidate, Che Alias Hamid’s victory in the 15th general election after the petitioner, Wan Mohamad Hisham Wan Abdul Jalil (a voter), was able to prove that corruption had taken place in the election.
PAS decided not to appeal against the decision.
