Singapore: Lawrence Wong Boosted by Mild Improvement in PAP Vote Share
- PM Lawrence Wong led the PAP to a bigger victory than in 2020, winning 87 of the 97 seats, and 65.6% of votes in contested seats (vs 61.2% in 2020).
- Since one 5-member seat (Marine Parade-Braddell Heights GRC) was won uncontested (while all seats were contested in 2020) the vote share figures aren’t strictly comparable between 2020 and 2025.
- Nonetheless, the larger proportion of votes and seats won by PAP give the PM a freer hand in making and implementing policy with a seemingly stronger mandate. Positive for Singapore.
