GE 2015 --Vote swing because of new-citizen votes ! All must read !

[Man in the streets]

simple maths

GE 2011 ---total vote cast--2,060,373
GE 2015 ----total vote cast--2,462,926

net increase--402k

Singaporean babies--120k (4yrs)

conclusion---new citizens --288k (14% increase)
no surprise of 10% swing.

those who attended the rallies voted Oppo but overwhelmed by the new citizens whom are the silent voters that tip local votes.

By 2020, there would be no more oppo parties in Singapore.
This is the main reason of 6.9 million.

No wonder some PAP GRCs need no GE rallies, they know new citizens are behind them.

Pls spread this pc of info to your friends and relatives, make it viral !

bro, you forgot to include tanjang pagar (walkover) in GE 2011.
Then the net increase is only 112K.

The figure you quote for 2015 is the number of people on the electoral rolls. It is not the turnout. The turnout was 2,304,331.
And, as someone mentioned, the turnout for 2011 does not include the walkover in Tanjong Pagar GRC.
So, the figures for turnout in 2011 versus 2015 are narrower then what you have stated.
