KPU Follows Up On Bawaslu Recommendations For Re-voting At 780 TPS

JAKARTA - Member of the General Elections Commission (KPU) Idham Holik said he would follow up as well as evaluate the recommendations of the Election Supervisory Body (Bawaslu) on 780 polling stations (TPS) to collect and/or re-voting (PSU).

"Of course this is a concern of the KPU, both for the current follow-up KPU, or for the KPU evaluation in the future after the 2024 election and the KPU will improve in the next election," said Idham as quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, February 21.

In the data disclosed by Bawaslu, his party recommends conducting PSU at 1,496 polling stations with details of 780 PSU, 132 further voting (PSL), and 584 follow-up voting (PSS).

The reason why voting must be done, he said, is because there are accommodated voters who do not have an e-KTP or a certificate, and are not registered on the permanent voter list (DPT) and an additional voter list or voter list (DPTb) so that they can vote at the TPS.

In addition, there are also voters who have e-KTPs whose voting places do not match their domicile and do not take care of moving to vote.

In addition, there are DPTb voters who get ballots that do not match their rights listed in the transfer form of choice and there are voters who vote more than once.

The deadline for the implementation of the PSU is February 24, 2024 or 10 days after the vote.

As of Wednesday, the KPU has set 542 PSU schedules, 65 PSL schedules, and 175 PSS schedules.
