(Bernama) - Umno Youth will give extra focus on 90 constituencies currently held by the opposition in which Barisan Nasional (BN) can conquer and win, Umno Youth chief Khairy Jamaluddin said.

He said this was because based on its recent survey, most of the voters in the constituencies were fence sitters.

“Through our survey, BN have a good chance of winning in 90 constituencies currently held by the opposition. Voters in the areas are categorised as fence sitters and if given more focus and efforts, I believe BN can win.

“Furthermore, BN had lost those constituencies with just a narrow margin in the last general election,” he told reporters after presenting Umno Youth Ramadan aid to 350 poor people, senior citizens and persons with disabilities here.

Khairy Jamaluddin said the survey also revealed that at least 50 per cent of the 90 constituencies could be won back by BN in the next general election.
