An interesting comment on the actual vote share of the Singapore Parliamentary Elections

Q4 is a poster I really don't know much about, but his insights (to somebody who doesn't really care - me) are pretty spot-on.

In a comment about the official vote-share of the PAP in the 2006 Singapore Elections - 66.6% - an interesting point to note is that the 66.6% of the popular vote was alread relatively low, but taking into consideration the Singapore Democratic Party putting weak candidates into the polls and losing terribly, he thinks it is not really the true percentage.

The percentage will even be lower if the votes cast in consitituencies which the SDP contested in were excluded. And this is pretty good insight.
