Presidential candidate number 1 Anies Baswedan showed off the envelope that had been in his pants pocket without realizing it. At the momentum of the 2024 election voting today, Anies told the story of the envelope.

The white envelope that was removed from the back pocket contained Rp200 thousand in cash. Anies showed the two Rp100 thousand sheets. He said the envelope was a donation from the community for campaigns.

"Every time there are campaigns that make donations and donations that are given directly, I usually pocket them. I just took out the front pocket, I just found the back pocket. I took it out earlier," said Anies at his residence, Lebak Bulus, South Jakarta, Wednesday, February 14.

Anies also shared other donations that he received. During the campaign period some time ago, Anies received contributions from people who are members of the City Poor Network (JRMK) with a total value of millions of rupiah.

"Everything from the people makes us more confident that we really want change and are entrusted to us and we thank you," said Anies.

Donation money from residents that Anies had received so far was handed over to the treasurer of the Anies-Muhaimin (AMIN National Team) National Team.

Today, Anies exercised his voting rights at polling stations (TPS) 60 in Cilandak Village, South Jakarta. Anies maauk went to the TPS with his wife, namely Fery Farhati, the mother, Aliyah Rasyid Baswedan, her two children, Mutiara Annisa and Mikail Azizi, and her son-in-law Ali Saleh Alhurariby.

After registering at the TPS, Anies received four types of ballots, namely the presidents, the DPD RI, the DPR RI, and the DKI Jakarta Provincial DPRD. Before entering the ballot booth, Anies checked the completeness of the ballot first.

Anies had shown the presidential-vice president's ballot before voting. When showing off the ballot, Anies did not escape pointing at the index finger which means number 1, namely his serial number and vice presidential candidate Muhaimin Iskandar.

After voting, Anies put the ballot in the ballot box, followed by soaking his finger in the ink. Anies used his index finger to dip the ink and again showed it to the people who watched it.

After using his voting rights, Anies plans to monitor the process of calculating quickly or quick count of the 2024 presidential election at the AMIN National Team Winning Headquarters, Jalan Diponegoro, Central Jakarta.

Anies will monitor the quick count results with vice presidential candidate Muhaimin Iskandar (Cak Imin) after using his voting rights to vote at the polling station (TPS) near his residence.

Cak Imin, who is also the General Chair of PKB, is registered at TPS number 23 on Jalan Kemang Raya, Bangka Village, Mampang District, South Jakarta, to exercise his voting rights.
