Barisan Nasional (BN) won the Hulu Selangor parliamentary seats is already beyond expectation. Barisan Nasional won by a 1,725-vote majority. Barisan Nasional Candidate from Malaya Indian Congress (MIC) P. Kamalanathan garnered 24,997 votes to defeat Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) (Pakatan Rakyat) Datuk Zaid Ibrahim, who got 23,272 votes. There were 731 spoilt votes, of the total of 48,935 votes cast. Voter turnout was 75.87%. The winning of BN are mainly contributed by heavy goodies from Barisan Nasional, such as promises to pay Felda settlers and others. And PKR loses are mainly Pakatan Rakyat non-performing, since 2 years of the General Election, Pakatan had taken control the Selangor state for 2 years, but it seems that promises were not fulfilled and Pakatan Rakyat are not doing enough for the Rakyat (people). Furthermore, the Indian in Hulu Selangor are backing MIC (BN) and the Malay are also backing UMNO (BN), thus some vote are deliver back to Barisan Nasional. Hence, this might be a signal or indication to Pakatan Rakyat that the people's are not happy with their performance.
