Aftermath

Malaysian Islamic Party, (PAS) was seen dominating in predominantly Malay-Muslim population state seats while Pakatan Harapan and took mixed seats and Barisan Nasional took three remaining seats. Kedah BN leader and previous Menteri Besar Ahmad Bashah said that his party accepted their defeat to PH in the election. [15] An UMNO MLA for Guar Chempedak, Ku Abdul Rahman Ku Ismail, on 12 November 2018 announced his resignation from UMNO and BN to support PH, and later joined BERSATU. [16] This made PH held 19 seats, enough for a simple majority in the Assembly.

The Pakatan Harapan state government led by Mukhriz only lasts 25 months, when in the wake of 2020 Malaysian political crisis, exit of Bersatu MLAs from PH and defection of support from ex-PH members turned independent, resulted in Mukhriz resignation as Menteri Besar. A new state government was formed in a coalition between BN, Perikatan Nasional (Bersatu and PAS) and independent MLAs, with Sanusi Mohd Nor from PAS appointed as the new Menteri Besar on 17 May 2020. Mukhriz and Amiruddin Hamzah was later sacked from Bersatu on 28 May 2020, and they formed a new political party, PEJUANG on August that same year with other ex-Bersatu members.
