Bukit Gantang - 26% Without House Number

26% of voters in P059 Bukit Gantang are registered without specific house number. The Trong DUN has 50% voters without house number, and its Batu Hampar DM up to 90%. The three largest addresses without house number have 449, 424, and 407 registered voters.

Table A shows that:

  • Overall, in the parliamentary constituency of P059 Bukit Gantang, 26.1% or 14,480 out of 55,426 voters, are registered WITHOUT specific address (ie, blank house number).
  • An example is 059/15/10/002 or Batu Gantang / Trong / Permatang Raja / Kampong Permatang Raja, with 449 registered voters, where the "NoRumah" data field is left blank.
  • The small Trong DM has 50.7%, the highest rate of blank-house-number voters.
  • Changkat Jering DM has the lowest rate, but still at 15.4%.
  • In our analysis, we have cleaned up inconsistent addressing in SPR registration, treating "-" etc as "blank." We have exclude postal voters.

Table B shows:
  • The 14 largest unique addresses or locality WITHOUT specific house numbers.
  • We include only such non-specific addresses with 200 or more voters.
  • More specific addresses are available to field observers.
  • The three largest such addresses are registered with 449, 424, and 407 voters respectively
  • Noticeably, the Trong DUN with the highest rate of blank-house-number addresses do not have many cases shown in this table, probably because Trong has smaller DMs and spread-out subdivisions (more "atomized") . For example, the 3 largest DMs in Trong contain 1843, 1311, and 999 voters, compared to the 3 largest DMs in Kuala Sapetang with 3351, 2945, and 2586 voters.
