A total of 46 voters will cast their ballots at the Kempas police station, while 881 voters will do so at the PPM headquarters.
On Saturday, the Malaysian Meteorological Department forecast today’s weather in the Pulai constituency to be clear in the morning and rainy in the afternoon.

However, there is no early voting for the Simpang Jeram by-election.
The Pulai parliamentary by-election is a three-cornered fight between Pakatan Harapan candidate Suhaizan Kaiat, Perikatan Nasional candidate Zulkifli Jaafar, and independent Samsudin Mohamad Fauzi.
