HULU SELANGOR: A 90% voter turnout has been recorded as at 1pm on Tuesday (May 7) in conjunction with early voting for the Kuala Kubu Baharu by-election.

The Election Commission said the early voting involved a total of 863 voters at two centres, namely the multi-purpose hall of the Royal Malaysian Police College and the 4th Infantry Division of the Royal Signals Regiment.

The by-election sees a four-cornered fight between Pang Sock Tao (Pakatan Harapan), Khairul Azhari Saut (Perikatan Nasional), Hafizah Zainuddin (Parti Rakyat Malaysia) and Independent Nyau Ke Xin.

It is being held following the death of the incumbent Lee Kee Hiong, 58, due to cancer on March 21.

The state constituency has 40,226 registered voters. - Bernama
