As Melaka heads to the polls on November 14, DAP must defend its existing strongholds while contesting three additional seats allocated under the Pakatan Harapan banner. This comes as the entry of Bersatu and Bersama shifts the electoral arithmetic, introducing multi-cornered vote-splitting into what were once predictable races.
Kerk Chee Yee, DAP Melaka Publicity Secretary and candidate for N16 Ayer Keroh, joins The Morning Run to unpack the party's strategy.
He explains why DAP opted to retain incumbents in core urban seats while deploying familiar community ground teams in previously lost constituencies. He also addresses why Ayer Keroh is no longer guaranteed safe territory under a four-way contest, weighing the risk of new entrant Bersama cannibalising Pakatan Harapan's base against Bersatu’s potential to disrupt Malay voter support from 2021.
