Technically, the party led by him didn’t win. The coalition led by him won.
Big difference.
Any constituent member (i.e. a party) of the coalition can leave to join another coalition without losing seats. It’s within the realm of possibility (although extremely unlikely) that UMNO can kick out Najib, invite Mahathir and his party (Bersatu) to join the BN coalition and form the next next government together. -
