Counting is still in progress.”The public should wait for the announcement of the election result by the returning officer, Tan Meng Dui, which will be broadcast on television, added the ELD.A total of 2,709,455 Singaporeans were eligible to vote on Friday. They cast their ballots across 1,264 polling stations islandwide.The ELD said that, as at 5 pm on Friday, 2,302,996 people had cast their votes, making up about 85 per cent of the total number of eligible voters.In each election, a sample count is performed at the start of the counting process to get an early indication of the possible outcome.This is the first presidential election where the sample count has been publicly released ahead of the final results, with the ELD first doing so for the 2015 General Election.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":215259396161784,"gmtCreate":1693584280474,"gmtModify":1693584287979,"author":{"id":"3579899712012688","authorId":"3579899712012688","name":"DQuek","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0041a6750d53c4d39f0f9251bea439d3","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3579899712012688","authorIdStr":"3579899712012688"},"htmlText":"Congratulations Tharman!
