KINABATANGAN: A total of 196 police personnel will cast their early votes tomorrow for the Kinabatangan parliamentary and Lamag state by-elections.
The early voting will take place at the Kinabatangan district police headquarters from 8am to 5pm using a single channel.
The Malaysian Meteorological Department has forecast favourable weather for the voting day.
The Kinabatangan contest is a three-cornered fight featuring Mohd Kurniawan Naim Moktar of Barisan Nasional (BN), Datuk Saddi Abdul Rahman of Warisan, and independent candidate Goldam Hamid.
The Lamag seat will see a straight fight between Mohd Ismail Ayob of BN and Mazliwati Abdul Malek of Warisan.
These by-elections were triggered by the death of the former incumbent, Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin, on December 5 last year.
The Election Commission has set Saturday, January 24, as the official polling day for the general electorate.
