PETALING JAYA: Unofficial results show that Barisan Nasional’s Johari Hussain has won the Tioman state seat in Pahang.
Johari is in a five-cornered contest for the seat with Nor Idayu Hashim (Perikatan Nasional), Fadzli Ramly (Pakatan Harapan), Osman A Bakar (Pejuang) and independent candidate Sulaiman Bakar.
PH is making way for BN in the election.
The election for the state seat was postponed following the death of Perikatan Nasional candidate Yunus Ramli, 61, in the early hours of the 15th general election (GE15) on Nov 19.
Johari won the seat in the 2018 general election with a 1,280-vote majority against Yunus in a four-cornered fight.
