Ur maths fail. Let's say CST endorsement is 10% of total votes, swing to TJS, he still lose to Tony tan. So he wasn't a strong contender in the first place.

And obviously CST endorse someone for their true caliber. He was the one who championed for opposition unity, if TJS was any good, he would have supported him.

Ur Maths failed then.

60.1 voted for PAP, only 35.2% voted for Tony Tan.

This explains the hardcore PAP is at around 35%.

60.1 - 35.2 = ~24.9% voted for PAP due to weak opposition candidates voted for TCB but figures can be sway by a few percent for the Tanjong Pagar GRC walkover wildcard.

34.9 - 24.9% = 10% votes from opposition camp took CST's endorsement and vote TCB.

Since Jee Say has 25% votes, hence it proved that these are the hardcore opposition supporters.

Had CST not interfere like WP, then 25 + 10 = 35%, TJS indeed won't win Tony Tan's 35.2%. Only if TKL did not enter the race.....

Stand corrected - after calculating wrongly :( .


TCB is strong in the sense that he can appeal to both camp of people. But he cannot appeal to Chinese educated people because he chose not to get his supporter to speak Chinese for him during the TV rally. I got people who sicked of seeing the subtitles in Channel 8 TV rally.


PS: You keep harping that CCK, Teban, Jurong all these west estate TCB got 70% of the votes. But for his vote to be dramatically dropped so much, that means that TCB did not win much support in the North and East especially.

How can one that fails to get high votes across all parts of Singapore could claim that he is the unifying figure of Singapore?

I have a very good impression of Tharman but sad to say, not that good for SingFirst. Just the name of their party gives ppl the idea that they are a terrible xenophobic bunch.

Tharman is a rather objective person and he's perhaps one of the very few politicians to have a very democratic mindset on how policies should run and how debates should be embraced in our society.

Also, I don't think any of the SingFirst candidates are able to voice out such intellectual arguments that is on par with him.

Honestly, it's a pity that we still have the stupid belief that a Singaporean who is not Chinese will not be acceptable as a PM. Tharman is really one of the very few PAP people I do appreciate and will be glad if he's the PM, not one of those generals.

Plus SingFirst is really...shitty. IF WP, SPP, SDP (I do not agree with them, but will vote for them) comes to Jurong, it will make me vote easily for opposition.

For now, it's either abstain or vote for PAP in Jurong -.-

Jurong Spring guy here. I only want Tharman to stay but the other 4 in the team are just enjoying the free ride.

Tharman is one of the most popular guy in PAP and everyone in Jurong likes him. I think SFP sent their suicide team here sia none of them are famous or what leh, summore is their first election for them.

Both PAP and SFP alao quite silent here lolz. Of all the oppo I kena the SFP zzz

Finally saw some Singfirst boards. But I wished they would have put their logo below pappy's one instead of their 5 faces, old folks might be confused
