"The candidate pair, while their rival, Machfud Arifin-Mujiaman, only excels in the remaining seven sub-districts," said Director of Research for the Surabaya Survey Center (SSC), Edy Marzuki, on the sidelines of the Surabaya Pilkada quick count, Wednesday, December 9.

This advantage is based on a quick count which shows the superiority of the Eri-Armuji (ErJi) pair in the Surabaya Pilkada. Erji excels in 24 sub-districts and candidate pair number 02, Machfud-Mujiaman (MaJu) only excels in seven sub-districts.

Meanwhile, based on the region, Erji excels in South Surabaya, namely in the Dukuh Pakis District by 72 percent. Followed by West Surabaya in Sukomanunggal District with 71.5 percent, Central Surabaya in Genteng District with 66.3 percent, East Surabaya in Gunung Anyar District with 65.85 percent, and North Surabaya in Kenjeran District with 55 percent.

Of the 31 sub-districts in the city of Surabaya, Erji only lost in seven districts, including Tenggilis (38.88%), Asemrowo (48.11 percent), Pakal (49.61 percent), Tandes (48.11 percent), Bulak (40.65 percent), Krembangan (47.45 percent) and Customs Cganti with 47.41 percent.

"The defeat in the 7 districts is actually only narrow," he said.

That means, he said, it is impossible for the ErJi pair to win over.

"Even the chances of the MAJU pair filing a lawsuit to the Constitutional Court are also very small. It can be accepted, because the tolerance limit for the difference in the vote count results is 1.5 percent. Unless there is a strong, systematic and massive indication of committing violations. the calculation is done by the KPU of Surabaya City, "said Edy.
