Shafie Apdal
Sabah Heritage Party

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]

Last election pendulum

The 14th General Election witnessed 29 governmental seats (later with addition of 10 members from non-governmental seats (6 from UPKO and 4 from UMNO) that decided to support the creation of new state government) and 31 non-governmental seats (later became 21 seats after 10 of them decided to support new government) filled the Sabah State Legislative Assembly. 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.
