JAKARTA - As many as 82.5 percent of Indonesians believe that the 2024 General Election (Pemilu) will take place honestly and fairly based on the results of the Center of Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) survey.

"So, this is the map we got after the first debate took place. The three candidates still have time to determine political work," said Head of the Department of Politics and Social Change CSIS Arya Fernandes in Siniar as a result of the 2024 election survey reported by ANTARA, Wednesday, December 27.

The survey, which took place on December 13-18, 2024, against 1,300 respondents aged 17 years or who were married, shows that the level of public confidence in the implementation of the election is very high.

The percentage of public trust includes the ownership of the same rights in voting at 91.8 percent, the continuity of voting at honest and fair polling stations of 82.5 percent, the same rights for all political parties in each election stage 83.8 percent, and the implementation of elections that are safe from violence and intimidation by 77.2 percent.

Meanwhile, the number of respondents who claimed not to believe the election was running without violence and intimidation was only 21.9 percent, about 1.7 percent of whom were based on personal experiences that claimed to have experienced intimidation ahead of the election.

In addition to the positive response to the course of the election, the enthusiasm of the community to participate in the vote count at the polling station also showed encouraging figures.
