The snap state election was called after a political crisis arose. Both Shafie Apdal, leader of the Pakatan Harapan (PH) and Sabah Heritage Party (WARISAN) coalition government and Musa Aman, the leader of the Perikatan Nasional (PN) opposition claim to have the majority to form the government. However, the Governor of Sabah, Juhar Mahiruddin made the decision to dissolve the state assembly.[3]
The state election will be conducted under the special standard operating procedure (SOP) imposed by the Electoral Commission (EC) due to the New Normal as the country is still observing the recovery phase of Movement Control Order (MCO) for the COVID-19 pandemic.[4]

The government side has 11 safe seat and 4 fairly safe seat, while the non-government side has 2 safe seats and 5 fairly safe seats.
