ALOR GAJAH: A low turnout among about 4,000 young voters could stall progress and leave Machap Jaya behind, said Pakatan Harapan (PH) candidate Datuk Ginie Lim.
The coalition's candidate for the 16th Melaka state election urged first-time and outstation voters to return home and cast their ballots as residents prepare for polling day.
Lim, who previously represented the constituency, said voters under the age of 30 account for about 20 per cent of the total registered electorate in Machap Jaya, making them key voters in the contest.
"Youths make up about 20 per cent of the electorate in Machap, with roughly 4,000 registered voters under 30.
