Head of the East Java Provincial Election Supervisory Board (East Java Bawaslu), A Warits, announced that they are continuously encouraging participatory supervision from the public in the organization of the 2024 Pilkada.

Quick count is an election result monitoring method carried out by counting a portion of the votes that have come in to predict the final election outcome. This method involves analyzing a sample of votes from various polling stations and extrapolating the results to predict the final outcome. Institutions conducting quick counts usually select random and representative samples to ensure accuracy. Some institutions use advanced statistical methods and modern technology, such as real-time monitoring through applications and specialized software, to conduct quick counts. They also perform real-time monitoring to obtain accurate and relevant results. The accuracy of the quick count method heavily depends on the representativeness and randomness of the samples taken. Additionally, the accuracy is influenced by the sophistication of the technology used to process the data quickly and accurately. Therefore, the quick count method can be considered relevant and accurate in predicting the final election results, although the official results from the General Election Commission (KPU) are the ultimate reference.

Participatory supervision itself, Warits said, is the activity of ensuring the process of Pilkada stages by collecting data, information, and inventorying findings related to the implementation of the Pilkada by independent and non-partisan community groups or organizations. “Participatory supervision aims to ensure the conduct of honest, fair, clean, and transparent elections whose results can be accepted by all parties, both Pilkada participants and the wider community,” clarified Warits.

Of the many Pilkada stages, Warits revealed that all stages have vulnerable points for supervision. “The points are in many aspects, right now in the Voter List Update (Pantarlih) stage, later in the candidacy stage. Candidacy must also be supervised, as well as the campaign stage. Campaigns must not violate regulations and must especially avoid intimidation. There should be no intimidation from authorities or election officials who get involved. They must not force people to direct or win certain candidates. I think we must protect this together,” Warits stated.

According to Anies, besides support from the National Awakening Party (Partai Kebangkitan Bangsa) and PKS, there will be other political parties (parties) that will also support his determination. “Alhamdulillah after PKB and PKS, God willing there will be other parties willing to fight together to make Jakarta a developed city with happy citizens,” said Anies through his Instagram account @aniesbaswedan on June 26, 2024. Anies is currently in Spain. He mentioned that upon returning to the homeland, he will soon communicate with PKS leadership to discuss further steps for the future Jakarta Pilkada 2024. “We’ve struggled together in Jakarta as well as nationally with PKS, God willing we will continue to struggle together in the future,” he stated.

**Realize a Good Pilkada** Because of the many ‘dawn attacks’ in the last election, Warits advised that this Pilkada must be protected together, synergized together to be honest, fair, and safe from all fraud. “Yes, we must guard it together. Because it is impossible for Bawaslu alone, the KPU only has six people with its secretariat in each sub-district. Three PPS, three PPS secretariat. They have six people plus seven PKD members, seven people in each village guarding sub-districts with thousands of residents, even tens of thousands. To guard against ‘dawn attacks,’ it’s impossible to handle alone. Therefore, it must be guarded together,” Warits advised. Warits said that citizens can only vote in the Pilkada if their mental condition is not insane or they are sane. This means that those who can vote are those who think and are normal. “Do not let the thoughts of the people who can vote be bought at a very cheap price, even cheaper than a chicken. That is an insult to the people. Because those who cannot think should not vote. For example, insane people are regulated by law and should not be included in the DPT. Thus, synergy among all of us is necessary to realize a better Pilkada. I think it’s important,” he said.

Uskara noted that interior conversations on coalitions are ongoing, with no concrete stance emerging. The current emphasis gets on settling PPP’s support base, especially taking into account recent political elections where the party aims to regather scattered choose parliamentary success.

**Reasons PKS Endorses Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman in Jakarta Pilkada 2024** The Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) has officially nominated Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman as the gubernatorial (cagub) and deputy gubernatorial (cawagub) candidates in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada.

Anies Baswedan is considered a figure who achieved significant progress while leading DKI Jakarta.

Meanwhile, Sohibul Iman, according to Syaikhu, is a scholar.
