If TJS neber join in the fray, Dr TT would already have won hands down!

I don't think so, Voters of TJS will never vote for TT

[devilplate]

TT leading.....recount....

[fclim]

TT leading.....recount....

From the reactions of TT and TCB, you can tell who has won. Recount is a formality only.

[azeoprop]

More darkness ahead...

[Regulators]

Knn this kind of result, president going to be another yes man, wasting taxpayers money

[devilplate]

Sad day for the majority

[Regulators]

But I must say govt very smart, tjs not qualified they allow him in for a reason. without either tjs or tkl, I think tcb will win.

"Whatever the outcome, the result will be seen as a major setback for Lee and his long-ruling People's Action Party (PAP), which saw its share of the popular vote fall to a record low of 60 percent during May parliamentary elections that saw the opposition make historic gains." - Reuters India

If not for all the Yes-men and Yes-women in civil service, TT would not have won. Though I sympathise with lowly-paid civil servants, I guess they deserve their salaries.

It's a real shame that most Singaporeans voted based on fear (for TT) and on emotions (TCB) when they should have voted based on candidate's ability to understand and apply financial and economic concepts (TJS).

Get ready for more of our reserves and taxes eroded due to losses to global markets and investments, use of reserves for the benefit of foreigners, wastage of reserves on benefits that do not spur real, sustainable growth and prosperity, while top civil servants pay themselves top salaries, do not hold themselves accountable when things go wrong and wear their pants too high.

Setback or victory, the arrogance of PAP continues.

Really must bang head TJS is the least qualify if I must say, if only he didn't jump out to dilute the votes the outcome will be very different

[evergreen]

That's your POV.
25% of voters think he's the most qualified.

[taggy]

But I must say govt very smart, tjs not qualified they allow him in for a reason.

well, if only TJS didnt choose to try his luck right

[Allthepies]

Hee diehard opposition or nic seah fans Probably no one voted for him because of his personal capabilities, but becos of his brands under him

[Allthepies]

well, if only TJS didnt choose to try his luck right

Ya, very sickening

[Regulators]

This tkl should have just stepped aside not tjs judging from popularity. If tkl had not stood for election, the victory will clearly belong to tcb coz those who voted for tkl will never vote for tt. Imo tkl is the odd ball.

But from the sequence of events, it was TJS who came out suddenly and if I'm not wrong, and after tat, TKL wanted to withdraw but TJS said something nasty to him tat cause TKL to change his mind. So who's the bad guy here?

Anywhere the result cannot be changed anymore, we have to repent for the next 6 years

[evergreen]

Very funny. After seeing the results, people complain so-and-so should have withdrawn blah blah. Why don't people say TT shouldn't have stood for election because he made PAP lau kui. All just good at saying, "on hindsight blah blah blah".

I all along no supporter of the only opposition candidate. U can read all my previous postings

[Regulators]

Tjs represents a large number of people who do not want to vote a pap guy so he needs to be in. TKL is neither here nor there, so he should rightly have stepped down and the win will surely go to tcb.

Got this from another forum:
"
PAP lost badly. Despite being NTUC backed, various unions backed, various business associations backed, various clans backed and other PAP balls carriers backed, Tony Tan is still rejected by over 65% of the voters. Terribly weak mandate and pathetic victory.

Tony Tan obtained terribly weak mandate of 35.19%.

Tan Cheng Bock lost by 7,269 votes. TKL is the spoiler.
Tan Jee Say 25.04% very respectable performance, 64% of the opposition votes from GE.

Tan Kin Lian 5%, lose deposit, as expected. The most hated person among the non PAP.

It would be a very diff story if TKL opted out......TCB would easily beats TT with the lion share of the 103,931 votes.....

Which sounds better? 35% President or 65% Rejected President?"

[Regulators]

Agree! 100% agree !

[Douk]

Actually, every candidate has his right to contest the PE, if met the criteria and pay the 48k. Voters are responsible for this outcome. People want qualified personnel as leader and a harmonized, efficient government, not a split and chaotic government. This is the reason why WP won in the GE and not the rest of opposition. This is the same reason why Tcb got his support for the close fight. The people is not ready for extreme change.. If Tcb did not contest, I believe Tt would have won in bigger margin.

[Komo]

Now he will know that whenever he shakes hand with someone, he knows that probably that person disapproved him.

[azeoprop]

No wonder this whole weekend weather so gloomy....

This is very funny

But maybe doesn't matter who wins because in the end the president is just zho bo Tan.

Ya, lousy weather during the election day. God knows.

[Allthepies]

Tjs represents a large number of people who do not want to vote a pap guy so he needs to be in. TKL is neither here nor there, so he should rightly have stepped down and the win will surely go to tcb.

Tkl supporters can go either way, to tcb, TJS or TT. But TJS supporters will never go TT, so will go tcb or tkl.

So u see tat the actual spoiler is TJS right? I trying to say if TJS not there TCB confirm 100% win. If TKL not there, the winner is still unknown

Simple logic right?
