Before the voting date on April 17, 2019, the contestants from the presidential candidates, vice presidential candidates as well as from political parties participating in the election had signed the Integrity Pact, which they will accept whatever the election results, including the anti-Hoax declaration.
In addition, they also made promises and stated that they were ready to win and were ready to lose, the promises had been made by each party chairman and manager before the KPU Chairperson, and the media crew from mass and electronic media covered them.
Including, election participants will take legal action in the event of fraud, and will not do anarchy when they see the vote that is not in line with their expectations.
The promises of heaven have also been spoken by the contestants, of course people are just waiting for their loyalty to the promise.
But it turns out there are still parties who echo fraudulent elections and claim that they are winners with more than 60 percent of votes, even though the results of the real count from the KPU do not show that number.
Those who felt cheated then echoed provocations, even though April 17 had passed, they were still sure of their victory and asked their supporters and sympathizers not to watch television.
Those who are generally supporters of 02 are still acting by assuming that the KPU has done unfairly, by allowing a lot of fraud to occur so as to benefit the presidential candidate 01 pair, they lack trust in the holding of elections, even according to the faction 02 fraud occurs massively including what happened at the election Overseas.
In addition, ijtima ‘Ulama is also considered provocative by issuing recommendations, one of which is the disqualification of the Jokowi – Ma’ruf Amin candidate. This is certainly excessive and indicates that faction 02 is afraid of losing, even though it has been informed that if there is fraud, the Government has provided a mechanism to report election fraud.
Of course we ask – just asking for a promise for two months, we don’t remember the promise that was made before the head of the KPU, even the media could play back their vow pledges a few months ago.
If they do not believe in the election, then why are they still participating in the election, campaigning and sending witnesses at each polling station.
They have also said that the elections are smooth, orderly and safe, we are just waiting for the results, “with this statement, meaning that they should recognize that the implementation of elections by independent institutions, namely the KPU.
However, after the KPU’s real count calculation was not in line with their expectations, various discordant tones were increasingly blown including the KPPS, they stated that the election was unfair, there were many manipulations, even the survey institutions were blamed by alleging that they had manipulated the sample .
Even though the former Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court Mahfud MD stated that out of the 101 errors, 24 of them were reports from the community which the rest were discovered by the KPU itself, corrected themselves because they were found by themselves where the public did not know.
“The community report is only 24. From there it means that there are only 0.0004%. It means that there is one in 2500 polling stations from there that is very unlikely if there is a structured engineering that should have percentages, this is only 1 per 2500, there may not be intentional, “said Mahfud.
Of course we are shocked by the accusation, because the results of the General Election have not yet been calculated, only about 60 percent have entered, what if the remaining calculations win them, whether they still accuse the KPU of being fraudulent, unfair, or siding with 01, or the results of an internal survey they are the ones who make it up, because they have never shown the method of survey conducted to the public.
If indeed they are not satisfied with the results of the KPU, of course they can use the complaints channel through the mechanism provided, namely through Bawaslu, the Court and Court, if they are still dissatisfied, please form their own KPU and elections followed by children, grandchildren, nephews, relatives and sympathizers of political parties who provide their support, it is certain that victory will be achieved with scores of more than 90 percent of the votes, and do not need to use internal surveys.
