JAKARTA - Vice Presidential Candidate number three, Mahfud MD, agrees with the statement of the Secretary General of the PDI-P (PDIP) Hasto Kristiyanto regarding an attempt to lock the votes acquired by pair number three.

Hasto previously mentioned that there was an algorithm used to hinder Ganjar Pranowo-Mahfud MD's vote acquisition in the 2024 presidential election. They could only earn a maximum of 17 percent and this was known after there was a discussion with information technology experts.

It's been a long time. Wong before the election already existed, before the voting on the issue was already there," Mahfud told reporters in Jakarta, Friday, March 8.

Mahfud said this issue eventually became a reality and would later be proven. "It's been locked a lot and the numbers are exactly the same," he said.

"It's just a proof later. Just look at it, see," continued the former Coordinating Minister for Political and Security Affairs (Menko Polhukam).

Hasto revealed that he received information that the number of pair number three was locked while speaking in a political discussion at FISIP UI, Depok on Thursday, March 7. He admitted that he knew this after discussing with an expert whose name was kept secret.

"For example, an algorithm to lock up Pak Ganjar's acquisition is only a maximum of 17 percent," said Hasto, who was present as a panelist.

Not only that, Hasto said there was a cyber disturbance in processing the C1 form. So, he considered that there was a need for forensic and meta audits for investigations.

"Even according to the IT expert, the election should take place in two rounds," he said in the discussion.
