The General Election Commission (KPU) of Gunungkidul Regency revealed that nine political parties (parpol) submitted requests to change candidates for legislative members (caleg) of the Gunungkidul Regency DPRD. The list of permanent candidates (DCT) of Gunungkidul candidates has finally been revised.

The head of the Gunungkidul Regency KPU, Ahmadi Ruslan Hani, said the names of the nine political parties, namely PKB, PKS, PAN, PDI Perjuangan, Democrats, NasDem, Gerindra, Ummat, and Perindo.

"Of these nine parties, 12 candidates will be replaced," said Ahmadi in Gunungkidul, Yogyakarta Special Region (DIY), Friday, October 6, which was confiscated by Antara.

During the funeral period, DCT designs start from September 24 to October 3, 2023. During this funeral period, political parties may change, change serial numbers, or transfer legislative candidates in other electoral districts (dapil).

"At this stage, political parties are allowed to replace and improve the list of candidates being promoted," he said.

Ahmadi said that the current stage is still verifying the administration of the replacement file for the legislative candidate. After completion, it continues to the stage of drafting DCT for members of the Gunungkidul Regency DPRD.

"If it meets the requirements, it will be included in the DCT draft," he said.

In addition to the change of legislative candidates, during the funeral period there were also improvements to names, titles, photos, and there was a process of moving electoral districts to changing serial numbers.

"We noted that there will be 55 candidates who will make improvements or changes," he said.

The plan is for the results of the funeral to be determined as DCT on November 3, 2023.

"Before it was determined, we also submitted the DCT draft to political parties," he said.

The head of the Bawaslu of Gunungkidul Andang Regency, Nugroho, said that his party was carrying out surveillance of the pecalegan stage.

During the DCT funeral, his party also deployed personnel to oversee the stage at the KPU.
