Presidential candidate number 1 Anies Baswedan admitted that he did not question the decision of the party that supported him, the NasDem Party, which had received the results of the 2024 election vote, including Prabowo Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka's victory.

Anies views this political stance as a party constitutional right that needs respect from all parties, although there is a difference in attitude with its presidential and vice-presidential candidates in responding to the election results.

"Political parties have constitutional rights and political parties also have attitudes that must be respected. So we respect, respect, and God willing, we will continue to be in line with the idea of changing for a better democracy," said Anies at the AMIN National Team Winning Headquarters, Jalan Diponegoro, Central Jakarta, Thursday, March 21.

Anies also admitted that he respects whatever the attitude of other parties that carry him, namely PKB and PKS. From this attitude of respect, the former Governor of DKI Jakarta hopes that the democratic process will be better in the future.

Anies also explained the reason why he and his vice presidential candidate, Muhaimin Iskandar, were reluctant to congratulate Prabowo-Gibran. Anies admitted that he was still sure that the current election results were problematic because they were passed by the implementation stage which was marked by allegations of fraud.

"What we experienced, we witnessed, and witnessed by several many media witnessed. From the aspects of policy, rules, to execution, there were many problems," he said.

This belief is the basis of Anies-Muhaimin's decision to sue the results of the presidential election vote to the Constitutional Court (MK). Anies hopes that the Constitutional Court will grant the dispute request and correct the election results.

"So this is not just a matter of protocol, a protocol regarding words (or) no (congratulations). Not there. But this is in substance, how the process can be improved and we hope that the quality will be better," explained Anies.

Previously, the Chairman of the NasDem Party, Surya Paloh, stated that his party received the results of the 2024 election vote recapitulation, both the presidential election won by Prabowo Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka and the legislative elections announced by the KPU.

"The Nasdem Party has stated that it accepts the results of the 2024 election which was held on February 14, 2024, both legislative elections and presidential and vice presidential elections," said Surya at NasDem Tower, Gondangdia, Central Jakarta, Wednesday, March 20.

Surya also congratulated Prabowo-Gibran, presidential and vice-presidential candidates number 2 who received the highest votes compared to the two other candidate pairs.

However, Surya emphasized that the implementation of the 2024 General Election was colored by many records from various parties. Many activists from various civil society groups to professors from a number of universities criticized and raised allegations that the election was marked by fraud.

"But whatever it is, whether we like it or not, whether we want it or not, we must accept it," he said.
