5x expanded by Sculture65 (talk) and OOOTenx (talk). Nominated by JaventheAlderick (talk) at 08:21, 2 September 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/2023 Singaporean presidential election; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
- I also consider about the following proposals, because they do share in common:
- ...both Tharman Shanmugaratnam and Halimah Yacob debuted in 2001 Singaporean general election as Members of Parliament for Jurong GRC before becoming Presidents?
- ...Halimah Yacob, the eighth President of Singapore, was one of the six appointed assentors for the President-elect Ong Teng Cheong in 1993?
- ...Tharman Shanmugaratnam was the third President of Singapore-elect with a former portfolio as a Deputy Prime Minister?
- ...2011 was the first year in Singapore where both parliamentary and presidential election ran concurrently in a span of three months?
- ...Tharman Shanmugaratnam considered a durian and a pineapple for his symbol, but eventually chose the latter to reference his prior ministerial roles?
- ...Sample counts, first introduced in the 2015 parliamentary election, carries an accuracy margin within 0.07% to 5%, which help reduce speculations and human error during counting?
- ...the Polling day for the 2023 Singaporean presidential election occurred exactly 30 years ago where Ong Teng Cheong was inaugurated as President of Singapore?
