SIBU: With just one more day to polling on May 7, there is no tell-tale sign that the Opposition would grab all of the six hot seats in the region or whether Barisan could wrestle back some of the seats.

DAP sprung a major surprise in the 2011 election by winning five of these six hot seats. These predominantly Chinese seats are Bukit Assek, Pelawan, Dudong, Repok and Meradong.
