===Political influence===
As Potong Pasir station was located in the {{SMC|Potong Pasir}}, a former opposition ward managed by the Singapore People's Party until 2011, it was one of the stations most involved in the political scenario of Singapore. The intended name for the station was actually Sennett, mainly because of such political reasons. It seemed that the route planners did not want the station to sound synonymous with the estate. It was also rumoured to continue staying closed when the {{NEL|b=}} opened in 2003. During the [[2001 General Election]], Chiam See Tong and Sitoh Yih Pin of the Singapore People's Party and the People's Action Party respectively, both dangled the station as a carrot, and promised the residents that they would appeal for the station to be opened should they be voted into office, as part of their publicity campaigns. However, even though the opposition won the seat, the station was eventually opened and was renamed Potong Pasir to avoid confusion with Sennett Estate (which was located along Upper East Coast Road).
