        DITTO to above...with the endorsement, it is almost like limiting the union members & clan members to vote for their respective preferred choice --->TT. I wonder if any corporations will be independent & bold enough to endorse the other 3 \"tiTANs\"? :salute:
        I read somewhere that TCB & TKL all have problems securing donations and appearance engagements to stay visible to the public. TT, on the other hand appears in the papers so often that it seems the publicity and buzz generated is a 'sure-win' sign for him. :slapshead:

          hardcore PAP supporters and older folks will go for TT coz he was ever the PM in making…I estimate that to be at least 45~50%.

            PAP supporters may split votes between Dr TT and Dr TCB, while opposition supporters will likely vote for TKL and TJS. That’s my guess. So ultimate winner hard to predict.

              Think that the winner is unlikely to gather 45% or more of valid votes as i do not underestimate the grassroot support for Mr. TCB. Also the ground support for Mr. TJS and Mr. TKL cannot be dimissed either. My guess is that 40% of valid votes is good enough to secure the presidency if all four confirm their nominations.

              Personally pleased with the outcome of PEC'S decision. Hope that the eventual winner shall be able to work constructively with our leaders.

                Yuh! If all four are to contest, i think Mr. TT will win with less than 45% of valid votes. Mr. TJS stands an outside chance if Mr. TKL will to withdraw.

                That's my reading.

                  TCB had gained some from the Patrick Tan saga…but think not enough.

                    TKL will not withdraw, that's for sure. He has been planning to run for presidency since 2008 leh!

                      Just to clarify, the candidate with the highest vote percentage wins? No need for simple majority (i.e. >50%)?

                        I think if all 4 are contesting, hard for one to get more than 50% vote. Then again, it’s hard to say cos election is difficult to predict…
