Electoral results

Note: The Elections Department (ELD) does not include rejected votes when calculating the vote shares of candidates. Hence, all candidates' vote shares will total to 100% at any given election (may not appear so in multi-way contests due to rounding).

Elections in 1950s

Note: UMNO, the Malayan Chinese Association (MCA), the Malayan Indian Congress (MIC) and the Singapore People's Alliance (SPA) formed the informal Singapore Alliance (SA), which contested the 1955 general election. Abdul Hamid, an UMNO candidate, is viewed by the ELD as a candidate for SA.
