Election Commission Receives Notice of Negeri Sembilan Assembly Dissolution, Special Meeting to Set Election Dates

The Election Commission of Malaysia (SPR) has formally acknowledged the dissolution of the 15th Negeri Sembilan State Legislative Assembly. The commission received official notification via a letter dated June 5, 2026, from the Speaker of the State Assembly, Datuk M K Ibrahim Abd Rahman. This dissolution triggers the requirement for a state election within 60 days, as stipulated by the Negeri Sembilan State Constitution.

An SPR special meeting is scheduled to discuss and set the crucial dates for the state election. The exact date for this meeting will be announced later. During this session, the commission will deliberate on important timelines, including the nomination of candidates, polling day, and the campaign period, ensuring they are suitable for the election process in Negeri Sembilan.

This development follows the Negeri Sembilan Chief Minister Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun's announcement of the assembly's dissolution. The dissolution had been a subject of speculation for several weeks. Following protocol, the notice of dissolution must be submitted to the SPR, enabling the commission to proceed with its electoral preparations and set the necessary dates.
