Umno polls: Teething problems arise


Ready to compete: Siblings Nasreen Ngasri (third from left) and Anne Ngasri (centre) sharing a light moment with Puteri Umno members at PWTC.

PETALING JAYA: Almost similar ballot papers for national and divisional posts may have led to many spoilt votes and “unintended” choice of candidates for Umno’s three wings.

These are among the teething problems that surfaced when the party’s new voting system was put to the test as some 220,000 members from the Youth, Wanita and Puteri wings cast their votes yesterday.
