KPU: Efforts To Reach The Threshold Of Parliament Cannot Be Achieved
JAKARTA - KPU chairman Hasyim Asy'ari assessed that the United Development Party (PPP)'s efforts to reach the parliamentary threshold of four percent so that it could enter Senayan could not be achieved.
According to him, this is a consequence of the Constitutional Court (MK) which cannot accept a number of requests for the 2024 Pilleg General Election Result Dispute (PHPU) filed by the party.
"The consequence is that efforts from PPP through the MK route to achieve a minimum vote of limits for the quarter percent parliamentary threshold cannot be achieved because the dissal decision states that a number of PPP cases cannot be continued at the evidentiary hearing," said Hasyim as quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, May 21.
Hasyim stated that he did not remember which PPP cases were unacceptable to the panel of judges at the Constitutional Court, but he highlighted one of the most prominent cases.
"The most prominent thing in West Java was that there were 19 regencies/cities in West Java and the Court stated that, as far as I remember, it could not continue to examine the evidence," he said.

He who was present in person to attend the trial was scheduled to read the dismissal decision in the Plenary Session Room I of the Constitutional Court Building said that his party accepted the decision of the case which could not be accepted or which continued to the agenda of the evidentiary trial.
Regarding the case that continues, he said, the KPU as the respondent in the 2024 Legislative Election PHPU case will take a deeper look at it to determine the next stance.
"The KPU as the only party in its legal position as the respondent must pay close attention to the copies of the verdict that have just been read out today or tomorrow morning to determine their attitude and prepare strategies for the examination of evidence," he said.
On Tuesday (21/5) and Wednesday (22/5), the Constitutional Court held a trial for the 2024 PHPU Pileg case. On Tuesday, the Constitutional Court decided 155 cases and on Wednesday (22/5), 52 cases will be decided.
