Kukup is on the ballot in the 2026 Johor state election. This page sets out the Kukup contest ahead of polling day on July 11, 2026, and will carry the result once it is declared.
Pakatan Harapan's candidate in Kukup is Cheah Chee Hong, standing for Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) within the PH coalition chaired by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. PH announced its full slate of 56 Johor candidates on June 22, 2026.
Pakatan Harapan is contesting all 56 Johor state seats, setting up multi-cornered races across the state against Barisan Nasional, Perikatan Nasional and other contesters. Before the assembly was dissolved on June 1, 2026, Barisan Nasional held 40 of the 56 seats. A coalition needs a simple majority of at least 29 seats to form the Johor government, so every constituency — including Kukup — counts toward that total. The full list of candidates contesting Kukup is confirmed on Nomination Day, June 27, 2026.
Polling day is July 11, 2026, with early voting for eligible military and police personnel on July 7. Malaysia uses a first-past-the-post system, so the candidate with the most votes in Kukup wins the seat outright. Voters can confirm their polling centre for Kukup using the Election Commission's MySPR Semak tool before heading to the polls.
