[CONSOLIDATED] Singapore General Election 2025 Discussion Thread

[titusilvering]

WP has a very strong team this GE2025.
Harpeet Singh, Dr Ong Lue Ping, Michael Thng, Jackson Au, Kenneth Tiong, Tan Kong Soon are just some of the many well qualified candidates we have seen so far.

You sure they exist? Not AI generated?

nv ask Raeesah come back run??

If the 失败者联盟 run one grc. I think cfm win. Just nice leh 5 pp. Tcj + mango jie + nicole sia + leon + rk = winning combi

 

[CanIsayNo]

ya better to have an opposition voice in parliament to give us the illusion there's some opposition voice and some debate and that PAP isnt fully in control. we are dumb enough to swallow this

 

[archkiller]

I think the time not ripe yet. Would be too risky a move

ya lor, wait lose and no longer an MP, other WP members will surely challenge his secretary general position. Then 2030 if he rejoin aljunied pap confirm said he also parachute.

No reesah khan and Nicholas seah considered strong?!

 

[Medicated Oil]

she already earn gao gao for past few years.

if she didn't anyhow spend away those money, already can retire.

You forget how she become famous initially ?
Once you are leading the high life, you cannot lower your living standard.
Maybe her hubby will become a potential advisor ?

As for her, I guess she still want to carve out her own career.

A bit tough, considering they have absorbed MacPherson into Marine Parade. MacPherson consistently polled one of the highest vote share for PAP in the last two elections.
I feel they should field Harpreet Singh in East Coast GRC instead.

If the swing in votes to WP is too much, Macpherson SMC alone might not be able to withstand it....

The IMH doc looks like a down to earth guy. He dealt with siaolang before, I'm sure he can interact with sinkies well.

WP polled about 43% in 2020. Macpherson votes alone can help pulled up a further 5% for PAP, which means the vote swing WP need to achieve in order to win MP is approx 13%. Certainly not easy

Hard to say.
Bukit Panjang SMC is an ageing population constitutency...
5% of Bukit Panjang SMC have died over the past 5 years.
35,497 (2020) 33,566 (2025)... thats close to 2,000 who have died and not replaced.
Also many occupants are those who bought resale flats... after the older ones died.

Paul needs to campaign more actively. Right now focus is more on Chee's Sembawang. To be honest, havent seen Paul lately.

In fact, I see Liang Eng Hwa more often, though he isnt popular... dont see people wave to him... he just walked around like an ordinary resident (he stays bukit panjang)....

yes, the more winnable seat for SDP is actually Bukit Panjang.

Unfortunately, Sembawang West is more of a PAP stronghold than Bukit Batok ever was. At least in the case of Bukit Batok SMC, back in the late 80s and early 90s, it had close results. In contrast, no part of Sembawang has ever been competitive.

SDP should move on from Chee and go all in on Bukit Panjang SMC if they want to win a seat in parliament

Really PAP-lite!

Ya loh, can give free psychotherapy at the mps.

Yes that's why WP needs to reduce TPL's margins in MacPherson

They appear to be walking the ground in MacPherson a lot, probably hoping to do that. If MacPherson underperforms and WP improves in the other parts of Marine Parade GRC, it won't be enough to help PAP.

Macpherson is a small estate so probably can only pull up Marine Parade votes by 2-3% as the percentage is diluted within a much larger GRC
