• W1986474948 abstract "The is a slippery concept.1 For a start, it is difficult to determine what percentage of a given poll represents such a vote. In the Malaysian case, the opportunities for even attempting an approximate assessment of the size of the protest vote in any particular election have been limited. Nor have any opinion polls been taken to gauge why voters supported a particular party. It is, therefore, only possible to speculate upon the significance of the protest vote on the rare occasions when political circumstances substantially alter the normal pattern of government arid opposition. The 1974 general election in Trengganu provided such an opportunity, since the two normal rivals for power in that state had aligned themselves in a coalition. This created an opposition void to be filled by a party which had never before contested on a wide scale in that state. These circumstances are not unlike a solar eclipse. Just as the moon allows the sun's corona to be more clearly discerned, the realignment with the government of a party usually in opposition provided conditions which allow the observer to speculate on the significance of an estimate of the protest vote. Although similar conditions applied in other states where the Parti Islam Se Malaysia (PAS) and the United Malays National Organization (UMNO) had previously been rivals, the case of Trengganu has been chosen for closer examina tion. This is because of the magnitude of the vote which the Partai Sosialis Rakyat Malaya (PSRM) recorded ? a phenomenon which surprised many observers ? and the fact that the leaders of the ruling coalition dismissed this loss* of electoral support as a mere protest vote. Another problem with the protest vote is that it may mean different things to the opposing parties. The ruling party may find it useful to invoke the notion of the to detract from the success of an adversary. It can be argued that there is invariably a blind protest vote against the government but that such a vote in no way represents specific or long-term support for the particular opposi tion party concerned. On the other hand, an opposition party usually plays down the importance of the protest vote or argues that the size of the protest vote is an indication of its successful mobilization of popular grievances. It would appear that the only Malaysian general election in which the protest vote is readily identifiable occurred in 1974. Following the 1969 general election and communal violence which had led to the temporary breakdown of the political system, the leadership of UMNO negotiated a series of coalitions with former opposition parties with the aim of expanding and strengthening the trans communal Alliance which had ruled Malaysia since independence. 88" @default.
