Remember:

• These data do not show earlier movements, such as in 2007q3.


• There are also some really bizzare in-and-out movements by identical army/police voters. For example, Pulau Pinang > Tanjong > Padang Kota (Kod 04926), which showed 341 IN and 357 OUT, and Net -16. If you look closer at the names, 312 of the INs and 312 of the OUTs were identical army ICs, which we will explore in the next blog entry.
  


• These data also do not show the sequence of movements. Did the inward movement occur earlier, or did the outward movement occurred earlier?

In contrast, there was little movement by army/police voters for the GE2008 quarter of 2008q1, shown in the table below of top-10 DUNs for in-coming army/police voters:
