JAKARTA - History today, seven years ago, June 10, 2019, the National Campaign Team of Joko Widodo (Jokowi) and Ma'ruf Amin or better known as TKN Jokowi-Ma'ruf prepared 33 lawyers in the 2019 Presidential Election dispute at the Constitutional Court (MK). The preparation was carried out to fight the allegations of fraud from the Prabowo-Sandi side.
Previously, no one doubted the hot tension in the 2019 presidential election. Jokowi and Prabowo met again as opponents. Jokowi also managed to defeat Prabowo. However, Prabowo did not want to lose and brought the presidential election dispute to the Constitutional Court.
Jokowi and Prabowo were once known as sworn enemies. The two fought in the 2014 presidential election. At that time, Jokowi teamed up with Jusuf Kalla (JK). Prabowo then teamed up with Hatta Rajasa. Both camps tried to win the hearts of the people throughout Indonesia.
The result of the election only left two things: the winning and losing camps. Jokowi emerged as the winner. Prabowo as the losing party. Jokowi was then inaugurated as President of Indonesia in the 2014-2019 era.
The narrative did not make Prabowo immediately withdraw from politics. Prabowo still chose to take part in Indonesian politics. he chose the path as an opposition. All kinds of Jokowi policies that are not pro-people are immediately criticized.
Later, the opportunity to fight again with Jokowi in the 2019 presidential election was not wasted by Prabowo. Prabowo once again tried to advance against Jokowi. Jokowi teamed up with Ma'ruf Amin. Prabowo tried to gang up on Sandiaga Uno. Both camps felt they had a great chance to win.
Prabowo is also like that. He believes that the people who are dissatisfied with the Jokowi government are jubilant. Jokowi is considered not to have improved the people's living conditions. This condition is because many of Jokowi's policies have hurt the people, such as raising the price of fuel.
However, the people also determine their leaders. The result is that Jokowi again emerged as the winner. Prabowo took a stance and did not want to lose. Prabowo claimed that he won and immediately performed a ceremonial act of thanksgiving.
"I as a Muslim want to close by chanting takbir and then bowing down in gratitude. All my friends are helping us, Catholics, Protestants, Hindus, Buddhists, we are the majority who want to glorify Allah SWT. Based on the results of the real count we have won 62 percent," said Prabowo as quoted by CNN Indonesia, April 17, 2019.
Prabowo's actions caused a stir. The narrative was because in the official count of the KPK, Jokowi emerged as the winner. Many then asked Prabowo to accept defeat. However, surrender is not a word that appears in Prabowo's life dictionary.
The Prabowo-Sandi camp then took the election dispute to the Constitutional Court. Prabowo considers the 2019 presidential election to be a lot of cheating that made him lose. Interestingly, now the Jokowi-Ma'ruf TKN feels that Prabowo's accusations are not true.
TKN Jokowi-Ma'ruf then prepared 33 lawyers in the presidential election dispute at the Constitutional Court on June 10, 2019. The presence of many lawyers was considered as a form of seriousness of the TKN Jokowi-Ma'ruf camp to deny the fraud referred to by Prabowo-Sandi.
"There are 33 lawyers from the 4 components who are part of the legal team. Tomorrow we will announce their names. We can't say it yet because it's not official. First it's from the supporting party of the coalition. Second is the Legal Director of Advocacy TKN. The third is a team from Prof. Yusril Ihza Mahendra who is also the lawyer of 01. The fourth is professional lawyers who want to join to help the presidential election dispute," said the Director of Law and Advocacy of TKN Jokowi-Ma'ruf, Ade Irfan Pulungan as quoted by lamandetik.com, June 10, 2019.
