Gerakan will be contesting 36 seats in four states, comprising 19 seats in Penang, eight in Selangor, six in Negeri Sembilan and three in Kedah. The party did not win a single seat at the 15th general election in which it contested as a component of PN.Among them were Federal Territories Gerakan chief. Hoi Keong said he only temporarily backs the idea for Gerakan to be in PN alongside Bersatu and PAS, which is the stance of incumbent president Datuk Dominic Lau.

He said Gerakan was a token party of PN and is there to show PN are friendly with other races and not just Malay-Muslims.
