Drama election of Governor DKI Jakarta in 2017 more exciting and less predictable. Because the election of Governor Jakarta 2017 is certain to walk two rounds. Given that, in voting conducted on Wednesday, February 15 and there is no one candidate pairs governor whose votes 50+1. Jakarta gubernatorial election second round will be held on 19 April 2017.
As a result, Jakarta gubernatorial election will be rolling two rounds followed by a pair Tjahaja Basuki Purnama (Ahok)-Djarot Saiful Hidayat with Anies Rasyid Baswedan-Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno. While Agus Yudhoyono Harimurti-Sylviana Murni must be distended.
One representative of the Student Executive Board (BEM) se-Jakarta, from As-Shafi’ites Islamic University (UIA) Rahman Arief estimates, DKI first race for the second round will take place hot. Because the candidates who qualified for the second round would spend all his style to win the contestation.
In Jakarta, Sunday (19/02/2017), Rahman said that the situation in the second round of Jakarta Gubernatorial Election, expected to heat than before. Both pairs of contestants following supporting device will exert all efforts to win governor election.
He also predicted, governor election violation of Jakarta in the second round will be more. Then, he hopes, the office holders should be able to make a good political education to the community.
Rahman also said that in the era of information and communication technology advances, the implementation of the campaign and to influence public opinion formation is not only done through direct meetings, dissemination of news through social media has been going massif. However, it has become increasingly difficult to distinguish between an informal news is true and false news (hoaxes).
Thus, in the Jakarta gubernatorial election in the second round later, hopefully all parties involved in the Jakarta gubernatorial uphold honesty and provide political education to be positive. Government, law enforcement officials, and all elements of society who crave the progress of this nation will continue to oversee and ensure that the election was conducted fairly, conducive, democratic and quality. We all hope that the competition is no longer pursuing public support tinged issue of differences in ethnicity, religion, race and intergroup (SARA).
