Twelve more PKR divisions in the country held their elections today, involving eight in Kedah and four in Kelantan.
These are Jerai, Merbok,Sungai Petani, Baling, Sik, Jerlun, Padang Terap and Pendang, Machang, Jeli, Kuala Krai dan Gua Musang.
There was a difference in the election which went into its third week today as the focus of attention - the deputy presidential race - was left with only two contenders after Zaid Ibrahim pulled out presiden.
Based on unofficial results from 99 of 222 divisions which have held their elections up to now - 87 last week and 12 today - Azmin Ali is still leading with a majority of 6,207 votes.
He obtained a total of 7,649 votes while his sole remaining challenger Mustaffa Kamil Ayub obtained 1,442 votes.
Azmin obtained a total of 1,182 votes from 12 divisions today, while Mustaffa added only 227 votes.
With the rest of the PKR divisions to vote tomorrow and next weekend, it is unlikely for Mustaffa to be able to catch up with Azmin and score an upset.
