Singapore’s ruling party extends hold with sweeping win in general elections - ‘Results will put Singapore in a better position to face this turbulent world,’ says prime minister Lawrence Wong

A sample count of votes released by Singapore’s Election Department indicates that the long-ruling People’s Action Party has won another landslide in Saturday’s general elections.

In total, there are 92 out of 97 parliamentary seats to be filled — there was a walkover on Nomination Day at Marine Parade-Braddell Heights GRC. The Elections Department (ELD) encouraged voters to consider casting their votes in the afternoon on Polling Day to avoid long queues in the morning.
