According to the Chairman of the General Election Commission (KPU) Husni Kamil Manik that the first simultaneous regional elections in the first period of 2015, which will be held on December 9, will be the most extensive regional elections ever held in Indonesia. Although the regional elections are not yet entirely synchronized, the projected number in the Potential Voter Population Data (DP4) is the highest ever in Indonesia’s regional elections. He continued, the voter count recorded currently exceeds 50% of the voter list in the 2014 Presidential Election. The number of 269 regions holding the regional elections is more than 50% of the total 514 regions in Indonesia. “This is the biggest regional election to date. This is historic, but it also poses a challenge for us,” said Husni after the handover of the DP4 at the Ministry of Home Affairs building in Jakarta on Wednesday, June 3, 2015. The first period of simultaneous regional elections will be held at the end of the year for the election of 269 regional heads and their deputies, including 9 governors and deputy governors, 224 regents and deputy regents, and 36 mayors and deputy mayors. According to Law Number 8 of 2015, simultaneous regional elections are carried out in stages: the first stage on December 9, 2015, the second stage in February 2017, the third stage in June 2018, the fourth stage in 2020, the fifth stage in 2022, and the sixth stage in 2023. “If all these stages proceed smoothly and according to plan, the nationwide simultaneous regional elections can only be held in 2027,” said Husni. >> Voter Data Update System Chairman of the KPU Husni Kamil Malik said that the simultaneous local elections will be held on December 9, 2015. Husni acknowledged that updating the voter data in 2015 is simplified. He stated that compared to the 2014 Presidential Election, the current data updating process is more straightforward. In the previous election, data was obtained not only from the Ministry of Home Affairs but also from local governments. “For this year’s data, the source is only one. Previously, there were two sources: the KPU and local governments. The update process is more straightforward; there is no need to collect data again. Now, synchronization is unnecessary,” said Husni after the handover of the Potential Voter Population Data (DP4) at the Ministry of Home Affairs building in Jakarta, Wednesday, June 3, 2015. He explained that this way, the local KPU no longer needs to debate in the field about the voter list data they brought to be cross-checked down to the neighborhood level (RT). “Our officers only need to bring the data. This makes it easier for election organizers and guarantees better data quality,” added Husni. Meanwhile, in the handover, the KPU received a total DP4 of 102.068 million. Subsequently, the KPU will provide the data in soft copy format to the local KPU levels. The local KPU will then hand over the data to the voting committee to be verified in the field, corrected, and forwarded to each district or city. The district or city will then issue a provisional voter list to be distributed to the public for review before the final voter list is published. The Ministry of Home Affairs handed over the DP4 to the KPU on Wednesday, June 3, 2015. This data is a list of potential voters who have the right to vote in the simultaneous regional elections held at the end of 2015. Secretary-General of the Ministry of Home Affairs Yuswandi A Tumenggung stated that the DP4 data will be used by the KPU as the basis for compiling the voter list for the first period of the 2015 simultaneous regional elections. In previous regional elections, the mechanism for handing over the DP4 before the regional elections was not first handed over through the governor and/or regent/mayor but directly handed over to the KPU chairman. “Later, the KPU chairman will continue the handover of the DP4 to the provincial and district/city KPU, and it will continue to roll to the Voting Committee (PPS),” said Yuswandi when handing over the DP4 data to KPU Chairman Husni Kamil Malik at the Ministry of Home Affairs building in Jakarta. The PPS, in this case, plays a role in updating the data together with the Voter Data Updating Officers (PPDP) to match the data in the field. The results of the update will be further processed from the Provisional Voter List (DPS) to the Final Voter List (DPT). Yuswandi stated that the number of potential voters registered in the DP4 reached 102.068 million people. This number is the total number of potential voters who will participate in the election of 269 regional heads/deputy regional heads this time. >> Eliminate Duplicate Data

Political observer Budiman from Mulawarman University (Unmul) stated that candidates running in the East Kalimantan Regional Election should be transparent. “Prospective regents in the East Kalimantan Regional Election must be transparent and free from money politics,” he remarked.

The quick count results of the second round of the 2017 DKI Pilkada revealed controversial outcomes, with the losing candidate pair making allegations of fraud. Challenges and controversies arose when the quick count results showed the previously favored candidate losing, casting doubt on the legitimacy of the results. The losing side in the quick count often alleged fraud in the voting process, such as money politics or data manipulation. These challenges sparked unrest in the community and caused political instability. Additionally, legal challenges could delay the official election results.

PDIP Secretary General Hasto Kristiyanto voiced his opinion on the speculation about a duet between Anies Baswedan and Basuki Tjahaja Purnama, also known as Ahok, as governor and deputy governor candidates in the Jakarta Pilkada. Hasto stated that his party embraces the nation’s best talents.

3. Voting Procedure

On election day, voters went to the nearest TPS with their e-KTP (Electronic Identity Card) to verify their identity. After verification, they received a ballot paper to vote for the governor and deputy governor. After voting, the ballot paper was placed in a ballot box.

“Whether through the civil service, retired military and police, socio-cultural groups, professional groups such as doctors, cultural figures, engineers, agricultural experts, and all other professionals can join PDIP,” said Hasto.

Quick count is a rapid counting method conducted by survey institutions, and its results can provide an early indication of who will be the winner in the Pilkada contest. With quick count results, the public can obtain information more quickly about the election outcome before the official announcement from the General Election Commission (KPU).

The long-term implications of these quick count results should not be underestimated. The winning candidate in the Pilkada could gain strong legitimacy in governance and policy-making in the future. Conversely, the losing candidate must consider how to manage the support and aspirations they garnered during the campaign process.

Huda reminded that the Jakarta Pilkada is very fluid and nothing is fixed yet, including PKS, even though they are the winners of the Jakarta Legislative Election, but they cannot nominate on their own. “Nominating two figures at once as governor and deputy governor candidates, that’s in terms of political etiquette for a party that already has a golden ticket, has 20 percent. Now, we know our PKS friends did win in the last legislative election. But they haven’t exceeded 20 percent because they only have 18 seats while the 20 percent is 22 seats,” stated. “So in my opinion, this model of hoarding figures for a party that doesn’t meet and doesn’t have a golden ticket is dangerous, dangerous,” he said.

**PKB Says Not Certain to Support Anies Baswedan** PKB Deputy Secretary General Syaiful Huda emphasized that his party is not certain to support Anies Baswedan in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. This is because PKB still has one more name being considered, namely Ida Fauziyah. “PKB has not yet decided to support Anies, we are considering two names,” said Huda, during an interview at the Parliamentary Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on Wednesday.

According to Irman, the DP4 data provided to the KPU is integrated with the voter identification system using fingerprints and iris scans. Thus, voter identities can be more assured, without duplicate identities. “The updated results will be further processed into the Provisional Voter List (DPS), which will eventually become the Final Voter List (DPT),” he said. He mentioned that the mechanism makes it easier if voter data is updated at any time. The DP4 data provided to the KPU is confirmed to be ready to be used as voter data for the simultaneous regional elections in December 2015. “Population data is dynamic; some pass away, some move, some retire from the military/police,” concluded Irman.

According to Fahmi, there has been an increase of 62,000 in the DPT for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. This increase was found by KPU Jakarta after synchronizing the List of Potential Voters (DP4) from the Ministry of Home Affairs (Kementerian Dalam Negeri) with the DPT from the 2024 General Election. “In the upcoming Pilkada, the number of DPT after synchronization is 8,315,669, so there has been an increase of 62,000 voters,” he stated. Fahmi explained that the increase in the DPT for the Pilkada occurred due to the high population activity in Jakarta. Therefore, the DPT for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada can still change. “Population activity in Jakarta is very dynamic. Today there may be 8,315,669 voters in the list, but in a week or a month, there could be changes due to people moving in or out, or deaths,” he stated.
