THE Election Commission today set May 11 for the Kuala Kubu Baharu by-election.

EC chairman Abdul Ghani Salleh said nomination of candidates for the state seat will take place on April 27.

Early voting is fixed for May 7.

The by-election for the state seat in Selangor is held following the death of its three-term assemblyman, DAP’s Lee Kee Hiong.

Lee died on March 21 after a battle with cancer. 

In the state elections last year, Lee held on to the seat for the third term with a 4,119-vote majority ahead of Perikatan Nasional/Gerakan’s Henry Teoh. – January 2, 2024.
