Highlights:
'The Chinese support for DAP decreased by 15% from 85% in GE2013 to 70%;
The Indian support for DAP decreased by 10% from 62% in GE2013 to 52%; and
if there was a silver lining to this campaign, it would be the slight increase in Malay support of 3% from 25% in GE2013 to 28% in this by-election.'
Conclusion:
'The battle for Teluk Intan may have been lost by the DAP but by attempting this move to break down racial and gender barriers, new ground has been paved. I am confident that after this by-election, more young Malays would look at DAP as a possible avenue for political activism. I am confident that more young people would support Pakatan’s cause to move away from race-based politics. Pakatan’s challenge is to lead the way forward and not look back.'
