Mukhriz: Umno wants monsoon season polls for lower voter turnout

Umno's leadership is pushing for the 15th general election (GE15) to be held during the monsoon season to ensure not many people would turn up to vote, said Pejuang president Mukhriz Mahathir.

According to him, this is because Umno realises that it no longer commands the people's support and that the party stands a higher chance of winning if the voter turnout is low.
