JAKARTA - Member of the Expert Council of the National Team for Winning Anies-Muhaimin (AmIN National Team) Bambang Widjojanto admitted that his party had repeatedly asked the General Elections Commission (KPU) to audit the IT system in the Sirekap application. This is related to the excitement of netizens' reports about the alleged inflating of votes due to the misinput of the votes acquired by the presidential election in Sirekap. The alleged mark-up for this vote acquisition occurred when TPS officers entered a photo of the vote acquisition in the C1 form. However, when the system reads the data on the number of votes acquired by each candidate, the numbers that come out swell. The AMIN national team also found the alleged inflating of the vote. However, until now the KPU has not responded to follow up. "We ask for an audit of IT. Two letters have been sent to the KPU, and finally there is a letter to Bawaslu to ask the KPU to follow up or conduct an audit, but that is not done," Bambang said at a press conference at the Convention Coalition Secretariat, South Jakarta, Thursday, February 15. With the KPU's attitude of being considered passive over the demands of the Sirekap system audit, according to BW, it caused protests from the public to allegations of inflating votes, although recently the KPU tried to correct the data misinput. "What's interesting is that when the number is issued, the KPU hurrys and then revises it. Now again, it could actually be cheating, it's spread, it's confusing, and extraordinary. So the numbers are not kidding. There are thousands and tens of thousands. It doesn't make sense. Ignorance occurs in numbers. "said Bambang. Meanwhile, Deputy Chairman of the Amin National Team Expert Council Amin Subekti revealed that his party had monitored the alleged inflating of this vote at at least 335 polling stations. "In the last few hours, there have been around 335 reports from various polling stations that we have tried to see on the KPU website, it turns out that of the 335 that we have opened, there are indeed differences," between the numbers contained in the tabulation with supporting documents in the form of the C1 form uploaded on the website, "explained Amin. Amin admitted that the inflated Sirekap's voice had indeed increased the number of votes from the three candidate pairs. However, the presidential candidates number 2 Prabowo-Gibran received the highest number of votes.

"The vote inflated both 01, 02, and 03. But if you look at the proportion of the numbers, the proportion is that 01 gets approximately 19.6 percent of the additional votes, 02 gets an additional 65 percent of the votes, and pair 03 gets 15.4 percent," he added.
