After the death of incumbent Batu Sapi MP Liew Vui Keong on Oct 2, certain quarters had called for the Election Commission (EC) to postpone from holding a by-election anytime soon due to the worsening Covid-19 pandemic situation.
However, according to the EC's top leadership, delaying the election beyond 60 days as required by the Federal Constitution is not possible.
