State Seats (Preview) - Kedah

Kedah is another state where the opposition has a fighting change to garner a majority of the state seats in the coming elections even though it lost miserably in the 2004 elections winning only 5 out of the 36 state seats.

There are 17 seats where the BN won in 2004 with a majority of less than 20% of voter turnout. If there is a swing of 10% of the votes to the opposition in 2008, it is highly likely for the opposition to win these marginal seats. There is a good chance that the opposition can win up to a total of 18-22 seats to wrest the state from BN control for the first time.
