Ayer Kuning By-Election: Shifting Voter Trends Emerge

Barisan Nasional’s Dr Mohamad Yusri Bakir clinched Ayer Kuning with a 5,000-vote majority, but cracks are showing. BN’s vote share slipped, PN gained ground, and PSM doubled its support. Turnout plunged to 58%. The by-election result hints at voter fatigue — and a shifting political undercurrent BN can’t ignore. Helping us unpack the outcome of this by-election, along with other political developments, is Ibrahim Suffian, Programme Director at Merdeka Centre.
