KUALA TERENGGANU, Dec 22 (Bernama) -- PAS was on Monday reminded not to use the issue of phantom voters in the Kuala Terengganu by-election on Jan 17 as it is baseless.Terengganu Menteri Besar Datuk Ahmad Said said whether it was the general election or a by-election, the opposition had always used the issue as a weapon in their psychological war.
He said PAS supporters had also used the issue as an excuse to behave aggressively like preventing voters working and/or residing outside the state from returning home to vote, as had happened before.
"When they (PAS) won the Kuala Terengganu parliamentary seat before, the Election Commission (EC) running the election is the same as the current one, but the issue of phantom voters did not emerge back then.
"Now that they have controlled five states, the issue also seems to have vanished. We (Barisan Nasional) believe in democracy. If we lose, we will accept it," he told reporters here on Monday.
Ahmad said, on polling day, it would be compulsory for the voters to bring their identity cards, and for women voters wearing the "jilbab" (face cover) to lift it if requested by the candidate's representative.
The Kuala Terengganu seat is left vacant following the sudden death of its MP Datuk Razali Ismail, who was also Deputy Education Minister, on Nov 28.
BN has chosen Kuala Terengganu Umno Youth chief Datuk Wan Ahmad Farid Wan Salleh to contest the seat, while Pas has yet to name its candidate.
The nomination day for the by-election is Jan 6.
tunku : it is very simple, if the pakatan wins that means no phantom voters and if bn wins then there are lots of phantom voters.if pakatan wins, spr is fair in carrying out their duty but if bn wins, then they are not fair and corrupted.this is what is taught in pakatan's brain.

if Pakatan then all is good for them.but if they lose,they gonna make many accusations towards SPR and the government.they always use the "phantom voters" excuse to justify their arrogant and ill-mannered act by refusing other people opportunity to vote.
i'm already tired of this phantom voters issue.each time the opposition loses their seat then in the same time they loses their cool as well by blaming on phantom voters and vote-rigging by UMNO/BN.
if really there are phantom voters than having to dream to win 5 seats is out of the question.but they managed to win but still whining over the seats that they didn't obtained.
sebenarnya yang jenis hantu ni adalah pas dan seangkatannya. asyik menyalahkan org saja kalau kalah, tapi kalau menang senyap pulak.dasar hipokrit
Salam Tunku,
Pengundi Hantu ...cerita sama yang sering timbul tiap kali pilihan raya. Heran..orang PAS begitu percaya kewujudannya.Beberapa hari sebelum PRU12 yang lepas, jam 2.30 pagi penyokong2 PAS dengan berani menahan setiap kenderaan yang memasuki KT di lampu isyarat berdekatan Masjid Terapung. Menjenguk2 ditingkap melihat siapa didalam kereta, bersorak2..macam samseng ! Apalagi kes bas ditahan di Marang pada hari pengundian. Kalau ada orang PAS yang baca, beradap lah sikit. Orang yang asalnya nak undi PAS boleh berubah fikiran kalau begitu cara anda. saya risau perkara sama berulang byelection nanti.
Dah memang jenis mereka ni macam tu. Kalau mereka menang maknanya mereka mendapat sokongan penuh lah. Tapi kalau kalah mesti ade orang mengangkut pengundi hantu.
