Executive Director of Aljabar Strategic, Arifki Chaniago, noted that the potential for independent candidates to make the Jakarta Regional Election lively is intriguing. However, when it comes to winning, it certainly demands a lot of hard work. "Looking back at the 2017 Jakarta Regional Election, Ahok initially ran as an independent but eventually went through a party. It's difficult," Arifki told Liputan6.com on Monday (13/5/2024). "Because political parties have stronger institutional power compared to independents. That’s why it is not easy for independent candidates to win the Jakarta 1 seat," he added.

Fighting hoaxes is the same as fighting ignorance. This underpins our creation of the Liputan6.com Fact Check Channel in 2018, which has been actively providing media literacy to the public since then .

"One thing to watch out for in every democratic event amid the rapid digitalization and social media is the susceptibility to the spread of hoaxes and hate speech with ethnic, religious, racial, and inter-group (SARA) nuances, which have the potential to create polarization that can divide the unity of society," said Edy in Palangka Raya, quoted from Antara, Friday (June 21, 2024) .

The pairs that advanced to the second round were Fauzi Bowo-Nachrowi Ramli (Foke-Nara) and Joko Widodo-Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (Jokowi-Ahok). In the second round, Jokowi-Ahok defeated Foke-Nara and won the 2012 Jakarta Regional Election.

**Explanation from Candidates and KPU** The spokesperson for the legal team of the petitioner (Sam HC – Rizky Boncel), Susianto, demanded that KPU Malang City re-verify the data of 13,615 supports that were declared ineligible (TMS). "We have proposed three options: re-upload the data to the Candidacy Information System (Silon), manual counting, or re-administrative verification," said Susianto. He added that there are real data such as support letters accompanied by scanned e-KTPs and excel data of the support counts that were deemed TMS. The Sam HC team requests that KPU re-upload this data to the Candidacy Information System (Silon). "That is what we are disputing in this process. We also want a maximum deadline of seven days for re-uploading the data," said Susianto.

Usep explained that independent candidates actually emerge as a critique of the party system mandated to recruit candidates in regional elections. However, some view the party system as still undemocratic and thus challenged it in the Constitutional Court (MK) and won. "In practice, many independent candidates fail in terms of electability. Furthermore, independent candidates lack party support in parliament, which is crucial for implementing various programs," Usep stated. Usep mentioned that independent candidates must be financially strong and have extensive networks, in addition to competing against party candidates with party machinery. "Party-nominated candidates are usually one step ahead because of the party machinery supporting them. Unless an independent candidate is highly popular and well-connected, it is difficult," he remarked.
