Singapore GE2020: PAP forms government with 83 seats, WP takes 10 seats
PAP retains their super majority in parliament, while WP manages to win two GRCs and one SMC.
The ruling People’s Action Party (PAP) will form the government again, winning 83 of the 93 seats available, retaining the super majority in parliament.
In terms of overall vote share, the PAP won 61.24 per cent in 2020, a drop from the 69.86 per cent it had garnered in the 2015 elections.
The remaining 10 seats were taken by the Workers’ Party, which won the Aljunied GRC, Hougang SMC and the newly-formed Sengkang GRC.
Meanwhile, the Progress Singapore Party, which fielded the most number of candidates among all 10 opposition parties, failed to win any seats. However, they will be able to take up one Non-constituency Member of Parliament (NCMP) seat after narrowly losing the West Coast GRC to PAP.
The other NCMP seat will be offered to the losing Workers’ Party team from the East Coast GRC.
