In order for WP to attract more talent, they need to win more seats.
This election, with the slate of candidates that WP has put out is one of the best. Such slate rarely comes by. The next one would probably in several GEs after, not the next.
Despite retaining its seats, due to the lack of seats break through, it does feel like a small loss for WP. I think a lot of us have forgotten that there has been an additional 4 seats added to the total seats of the parliament.
Every election, is a fight for survival for the WP. I highly doubt the WP candidates for this Punggol GRC will return in next GE, but I truly wish to be proven wrong. If anyone doubt that statement, you can have a look at the slate of candidates that WP had put out in the previous GE, how many of them returned in this GE?
The sheer fact that Yee Jenn Jong who announced retirement after the last GE had to be convinced to lead the East Coast GRC campaign, has reasonably demonstrated that WP is finding it very challenging to field credible candidates. So if the constituencies WP contest in every GE continuously rejects the candidates it fields. How can we expect WP to grow in strength?
