BENTONG: DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke has denied talk that the Chinese community, especially in Telemong and Kampung Baru here, will not go out to vote in the Pelangai state by-election tomorrow.

He said the DAP machinery has been working hard to ensure that electors in the constituency go out to fulfil their responsibilities to ensure a victory for Barisan Nasional.
