The General Election Commission (KPU) RI confirmed that the Information Recapitulation System (Sirekap) will still be used for the upcoming 2024 Simultaneous Regional Elections.

Political observer from the Indonesian Public Opinion Study and Discussion Group (KedaiKopi) Hendri Satrio, also known as Hensat, said that the regional election in Jakarta has never been kind to incumbents. Hensat made this statement in response to the recent emergence of many old figures expected to run again as candidates for governor and deputy governor of Jakarta in 2024. Names like former Jakarta Governor 2014-2017 Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (BTP) or Ahok and former Jakarta Governor 2017-2022 Anies Baswedan have been mentioned as potential candidates for the 2024 Jakarta Regional Election. “There are certainly chances for (Anies and Ahok to win the 2024 Jakarta Regional Election),” Hensat told Liputan6.com on Monday (13/5/2024).

According to Senior Researcher at Populi Center, Usep Saepul Ahyar, running in the regional election through the independent path is quite complicated. Additionally, defeating candidates supported by political parties is also difficult. Independent candidates must secure support from 7.5% of the total Permanent Voter List (DPT). In the Jakarta Regional Election, 618,968 support statements with identity cards are needed. “Independent candidates cannot be instant; they must be thoroughly prepared well in advance, including organizing their networks and securing 7.5% support from the DPT,” Usep explained to Liputan6.com on Monday (13/5/2024).

He questioned, are you really running, Mr. Arief? If you want to run, you have to win; if you’re not sure you can win, don’t run, he said. I agreed with him. Finally, on Monday afternoon, I decided to run,” Arief said when spoken to in the Karawaci area of Tangerang City, Sunday (23/06/2024). Arief also conveyed his views on the dominant political dynasty in Banten, noting the split in the community related to this dominance. Nevertheless, he is hopeful about competing with famous candidates in the region. “I hope to partner with the people of Banten to progress together, including with the existing dynasties,” he added. Arief highlighted his preparedness to work with various parties for the advancement of Banten, without compromising the interests of the people. “Whatever the outcome, I hope the next leadership can provide the best for Banten,” he concluded. With this step, Arief Rachadiono Wismansyah asks the people of Banten to back a shared vision in advancing the region through the upcoming election.
