Malaysia will hold its first state-wide snap election under Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob’s leadership on November 20, according to the Election Commission.
Nomination day for the Malacca state polls is set for November 8, while early voting will be held on November 16, the commission said on Monday.
The polls set the stage for Ismail’s first popularity test among voters and may serve as a gauge of his party’s strength ahead of a nationwide general election that’s due to be held on or before July 2023. Malacca’s state legislative assembly was dissolved on October 4.
