Singapore’s PAP on course for electoral victory

SAMPLES from official vote counting in Singapore's election on Saturday showed the People's Action Party was on course for victory, as the party looked set to win its 14th successive ballot and extend its six-decade rule, reported Reuters.

Samples of voting in nine of the 32 constituencies being contested showed the PAP had won in all of the aces. The vote count was ongoing and more sample counts were being released by the election commission.

The sample vote count has a 4% margin of error, according to the commission. A final result is expected in the early hours of Sunday. - May 3, 2025
