11.15pm - Seremban:Forty-five minutes before the official end of the campaign period, about 10,000 people flooded the Taman Seremban Jaya for DAP’s final rally. 

The crowd, many of whom are carrying umbrellas as there is a slight drizzle, sing ‘Ubah’ and a number of Chinese songs together with the DAP candidates on stage.
11pm - Petaling Jaya: Stadium Kelana Jaya is packed with Pakatan Rakyat supporters for the final rally before polling day tomorrow, where candidates from four nearby constituencies address the crowd (topmost photo).
The constituencies are Kelana Jaya, Subang, Petaling Jaya Utara and Petaling Jaya Selatan.
The organiser announces that the crowd size at the stadium is more than 50,000.
10.30pm - Ipoh: DAP Ipoh Barat candidate M Kulasegaran takes the stage and urges all the Perakian to cast their vote as early as possible tomorrow.

NONEHe claims that BN is trying to bring phantom voters from Bangladesh and Pakistan to vote for BN.

“To offset the phantom voters, we need to achieve a great turnout. If we have a turnout of 90 percent, then we can win easily,” he tells the 50,000-strong crowd in downtown Ipoh.
10.30pm - Johor Bahru: The crowd at the Pakatan Rakyat ceramah in Kampung Melayu Majidee increased slightly to 300 when DAP leader Lim Kit Siang arrives.

NONEHeld outside a residential house, part of the crowd sit on the tarred road as they listen to the speeches.

Citing the Merdeka Centre survey, Kit Siang says Pakatan has good chance in winning the general election tomorrow.

One of the first things Pakatan will do after capturing federal power is to enhance the security of Johor Bahru city, which he describes as "crime capital".

After Kit Siang, PKR's Johor Bahru candidate Hashim Hussein takes the stage. 
10.30pm - Putrajaya: PAS Putrajaya and PKR have denied that a youth group dressed up as Pakatan supporters and causing mischief in Putrajaya tonight were their members.
“We have received reports from our representatives from the area who can attest that these individuals are not associated with Pakatan or the individual parties in the coalition.
"We suspect this is an attempt to provide a false image of Pakatan and its coalition members. Further, eyewitnesses have confirmed that this group was escorted up to Presint 10 by the police before they started their actions,” a statement by both PAS and PKR said.
10.13pm - Segamat: Almost 20,000 people have once again converge on a field in Segamat town at Pakatan Rakyat's finale rally with more still trickling in.

In contrast to last week's rally which attracted similar numbers due to PKR supremo Anwar Ibrahim's presence, the crowd this time are made up of mostly youths.

NONEThe atmosphere is electric as the young and energetic crowd chant "Ubah" as it reverberates across the field.

There are no big guns coming to town tonight. Top speakers in this final ceramah include the parliamentary candidates for Segamat and Sekijang - Chua Jui Meng and Julailey Jemadi - as well as their respective state seat candidates.

Several vehicles with Singapore number plates are spotted in the vicinity of the rally.

"I see many young people have returned. When young people return, Umno, MCA and MIC will be destroyed.

"I have entered many Felda areas and they are all black areas, but today when I see so many young people here, I know Segamat is safe for us!" declared Chua. 
9.45pm - Johor Bahru: With less than 12 hours before polling stations open, only about 200 people, mostly Malay, attend the last ceramah by PKR at Kampung Melayu Majidee, Johor Bahru.

It appears Malay voters' response to Pakatan is still lukewarm despite an aggressive campaign in the past two weeks.

PKR's Johor Bahru candidate Hashim Hussein and DAP's Gelang Patah candidate Lim Kit Siang are slated to address the crowd later.
9:45pm - Lembah Pantai: Some 1,500 people gathered at the Kerinchi low-cost housing project's field to hear BN candidate Raja Nong Chik Raja Zainal Abidin's final speech before polling day tomorrow. Also present is former Kedah menteri besar Sanusi Junid.
Sanusi expresses his confidence that BN will win Lembah Pantai.
Raja Nong Chik speaks about his report card consisting of 630 projects that he had done over the past four years in the constituency.
"I am called the Lembah Pantai minister. But is it wrong that I focus on Lembah Pantai? You should be thankful that I focus on Lembah Pantai," he said to loud cheers of "RNC" from the crowd.
He promises that the Mass Rapid Transit system will be built in the constituency and urged the people to vote for BN. 
NONE9pm - Gelang Patah: About 5,000 people gather Seri Omega High School field in Skudai, Johor, anticipating Pakatan grand finale ceramah before the official end of campaigning period at 12 midnight.

The crowd is slowly streaming in after parking their cars along the main road outside the school.

DAP supremo and candidate for Gelang Patah Lim Kit Siang is scheduled to speak here later. 
8.50pm - Kapayan, Sabah: DAP Sepanggar candidate Jeffrey Kumin reminds the crowd not to go boozing tonight as they will have to vote early tomorrow morning.

"Don't go out drinking, no aramaiti, unless of course you only drink teh-o," he said.

The crowd has grown to about 1,000 people at this final ceramah.
