The quartet defeated eight other candidates who were vying for the four posts up for grabs.

Amirudin and Ramanan – both aligned to newly elected deputy president Nurul Izzah Anwar – secured 7,955 votes and 5,985 votes respectively.

Chang and Aminuddin, who were former deputy president Rafizi Ramli’s running mates, secured 5,757 and 5,889 votes respectively.

The party, however, did not release the number of votes secured by those who were defeated in the polls.

The vice-presidencies were previously held by Amirudin, Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad, Aminuddin and Chang, who were elected in 2022 and had sought to defend their posts in this year’s PKR elections.

Besides Ramanan, the other candidates who contested were: Bayan Baru MP Sim Tze Tzin, Segamat MP R Yuneswaran, PKR deputy secretary-general Dr N Sathia Prakash, senator Abun Sui Anyit, former Selangor exco member Hee Loy Sian, former vice-president Mustaffa Kamil Ayub and former Kapar MP G Manivannan.

A total of 32,030 delegates were eligible to cast their votes for the PKR central leadership election.
