On Saturday, Barisan Nasional won 21 out of 28 seats at the Melaka state elections. First, we look into what this big win would mean for BN, especially moving forward into Sarawak and GE15. Then we revisit a conversation on The Breakfast Grille about what went wrong with Pakatan Harapan. Finally, we look at how racial rhetoric played in the state and the campaign.
