ALOR GAJAH: Barisan Nasional and Perikatan Nasional are targeting 60 per cent voter support in the Melaka state election through cooperation between the two coalitions.
Umno Supreme Council member Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Maslan said the target was based on the percentage of votes secured by BN and PN respectively in the 15th General Election (GE15), at 29 per cent and 31 per cent.
He said although BN recorded its lowest level of support in GE15, combining the votes secured by both coalitions could give them an advantage in the state polls.
"In GE15, BN secured 29 per cent of the votes, PN 31 per cent, while Pakatan Harapan obtained 38 per cent.
