When will the 15th National Election polling be held on October 20?
According to a message from the Malaysian Electoral Commission (SPR), the EC will meet on Thursday, October 20, 2022 at 10am to discuss the date of the 15th National Election. A press conference will be held at the end of the meeting to announce the date.
This also means that the nomination day and voting day of the current general election will be known at noon on October 20. You can start planning your own formation after knowing the voting date of the general election.
Those who want to return home to vote can order their plane or bus tickets now. As for the working people, they can also start to arrange their own schedule on the polling day, and their bosses can also consider making the polling day as a special holiday for their employees to go to vote and perform their civic duties.
The last national election had its polling day on Wednesday, and everyone hopes that the current national election will fall on Saturday, so that everyone can return home to vote. If the polling day falls on a Saturday, that leaves October 29, November 5, November 12 and November 19.
October 29 is unlikely because the timing doesn’t work, November 5 and 12 are the most likely dates, and November 19 falls during the rainy season, when low-lying areas may be at risk of flooding.
