After holding the presidential and legislative elections, the Banten Regional Police (Polda Banten) is now preparing for the 2024 simultaneous regional elections (Pilkada) to elect governors, regents, and mayors.

Anies Baswedan only gave a slight smile when he heard about the claims of Jokowi’s meddling. He did not want to comment further on the matter. “All processes are still in progress, just go with the flow,” Anies said when interviewed after participating in a reunion with the DKI Jakarta Pancasila Youth MPW in Pejaten, South Jakarta, on June 19, 2024. Furthermore, Baswedan said that he currently focuses on issues related to the welfare of Jakarta residents over other matters. “For us, the chief matter is the well-being of Jakarta residents. It’s not about who will be the partner, that’s not the point, and the process is still long, just let it flow,” Anies said. Before this, the Chairman of the PDI-P Central Executive Board, Djarot S., believed that there were evidences that President Joko Widodo would meddle again in the 2024 local elections. In response to Widodo’s plan to Continue Social Assistance Distribution Prior to Pilkada This was concerning President Jokowi’s intention to prolong giving out social aid in the form of rice until December 2024. “We not only sense interference but observe it distinctly and openly, in Javanese it’s clear as day,” said Djarot at the PDIP DPP Office, Diponegoro Road, Jakarta, on Thursday. “Meaning, the involvement is very clear, very visible. It’s very evident,” he went on. Djarot Saiful Hidayat stressed that the continued distribution of social assistance until December constitutes an abuse of power. PDI-P Asks Electoral Commission and Oversight Agency to Address the Issue Therefore, the Perjuangan Party called on the General Elections Commission (KPU) and the Electoral Supervisory Agency to look into these evidences. Djarot wishes that the misuse of power by President Joko Widodo, which occurred during the 2024 Pilpres, will not be replicated in the 2024 Simultaneous Regional Elections. “We really request the election organizers, to truly supervise. Including the media and the youth. Especially since the social assistance will be prolonged until December,” he stressed.

KPU RI Chairman Hasyim Asy’ari said that the Information Recapitulation System (Sirekap), claimed to be a vote counting tool during the 2024 Election, will be used again for the 2024 Regional Elections. Since the election and regional election models differ, a new design is being developed. “Sirekap is planned to be used for the 2024 Regional Elections because initially, Sirekap was first used in the 2020 Regional Elections. The design and so on are being prepared,” said Hasyim at the DPR RI, quoted on Thursday (16/5/2024).

Furthermore, Ahmad Ali is ahead because he is currently the most liked by the residents. He is familiar to about 70.2% of the residents, with approximately 74.4% liking him. In other words, around 52.2% of Central Sulawesi residents both know and like Ahmad Ali. The data also shows Rusdy Mastura at 43.6% (60.4% liking him out of 72.2% who know him), Anwar Hafid at 36.3% (72.4% liking him out of 50.2%), Sigit Purnomo Said at 31% (37.4% liking him out of 82.9%), Hidayat Lamakarate at 25% (67.9% liking him out of 36.9%), Ma’mun Amir at 21.9% (68.1% liking him out of 32.1%), and other names with lower percentages.

The police in Banten have mapped out the vulnerabilities of the regional democratic event to prevent conflicts within the community. “In other words, the militancy with the community, presidential elections are different from regional elections. The militancy is higher in regional elections,” stated Banten Police Chief, Inspector General Abdul Karim, at the Bhayangkara 78th Anniversary social service event in Serang City, Banten, on June 25, 2024.

According to Doli, from the beginning, Sirekap has been a concern for Commission II DPR RI. It was even initially not recommended for use in the 2024 Election. “In the early stages of discussing the Election, friends recommended not using Sirekap, but suddenly Sirekap appeared from the KPU. So let’s discuss it later and not say it will be used now,” Doli explained.

The KPU will be responsible for Sirekap during the 2024 Simultaneous Regional Elections. “Oh, absolutely. If it’s the final responsibility (Sirekap) for elections and regional elections, it remains with the KPU RI,” said Betty at the Ministry of National Development Planning/Bappenas, Jakarta, as reported by Antara, Wednesday (29/5/2024).

Betty explained that the KPU also sets the policy for using Sirekap. However, the KPU will present the Sirekap format to Commission II of the House of Representatives (DPR RI) regarding its use in the regional elections. “The KPU regulations and policies will be presented first. They can provide input as usual, no problem,” she explained.

Even so, Doli still allowed the KPU to design Sirekap for the 2024 Regional Elections. However, whether it will be used or not, Commission II will provide its opinion. This is in consideration of the commotion caused by Sirekap during the 2024 Election. “Feel free to prepare it, we will see. Don’t let it cause confusion and commotion like last time. Due to it, there were celebrations that didn’t happen. So, whether it will be used or not, it must be evaluated,” Doli said.
