Never mind the allegations of malpractices.
I'll be generous. It was just an e-Screwup which has opened a Pandora's Box of allegations for PKR.
"The PKR polls itself has been plagued with technical glitches, with the Kuala Selangor polls postponed today to another date to be fixed due to the failure of the e-voting system. This was blamed on an internet glitch."
PKR should have reverted to tried and tested paper ballot voting once there were problems with your e-voting system in Penang and Kedah.
Not everything 'e' is better. Remember that whilst the only constant is change, however always ask whether it will be change for the better or for the worse.
However, PKR persisted with e-voting in other states and now it ends up with these allegations, which can drag matters on and on unproductively for the party.

PKR polls: Problems aren't as bad as they seem, says Syed Husin

PETALING JAYA: Former PKR deputy president Syed Husin Ali today played down the recent issues and problems plaguing the party elections, saying these were not as bad as they were made out to be.
Syed Husin went on to blame members for not using proper channels to lodge complaints and "over-reporting" by the media for making these problems seem prevalent.
He described these two factors as unfortunate.
"The problems are not as grave as the media make it out to be.
"The problems between Azmin and Rafizi are not as bad as reported," he said, referring to the party's number two, Mohamed Azmin Ali, and his challenger, former Pandan MP Rafizi Ramli.
He was speaking to reporters on the sidelines of an event to commemorate the life of prominent intellectual Rustam A Sani.
Past reports have shown that the two leaders have taken veiled jabs at each other in the run-up to the PKR elections.
The PKR polls itself has been plagued with technical glitches, with the Kuala Selangor polls postponed today to another date to be fixed due to the failure of the e-voting system. This was blamed on an internet glitch.
There have also been allegations of money politics, the latest being Sungai Siput MP S Kesavan, accused of offering a RM500 bribe to a PKR member to support him during the party election.
Kesavan has denied the claim, although reports have been lodged with the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission and police.
Syed Husin also said that despite the many complaints, not many have lodged formal complaints.
"There are claims of money politics and sabotage, but no official complaints. So it is difficult to investigate."
BTW. The Gerakbudya bookshop has a gender-neutral toilet.
Thankfully, the bookshop has actual toilets, not e-Toilets.
I'm not quite sure how people can e-Berak.
