“I apologise to all Keadilan members because of the election failure. We really need a thorough reformation,” Khalid said through his Twitter account on Sunday.
The election was called called off following objection from members who cited irregularities in the manner the polls was carried out.
Khalid, who is gunning for the deputy president post, said that every complaint would be brought up to the party election committee.
“This complaint and action is important for us to show that Keadilan is clean when conducting its elections,” he added.

The divisions that called off the polls were Subang, Hulu Langat, Sabak Bernam, Kuala Langat, Sepang, Klang, Kuala Selangor, Kota Raja and Selayang.
Khalid's press secretary Arfa’eza Aziz announced this via her Twitter account.
