Almost as if by magic, the Chief Minister strolled into the hall, where media personnel, members of the local business community and Barisan supporters have gathered, with his wife Puan Sri Ragad Kurdi Taib in tow.

The couple shook hands round the room and proceded to behind close doors for dinner.

There is a live feed of results direct from the Election Commission that is on display on two projection screens in the hall.
