JAKARTA - The DKI Jakarta General Election Commission (KPU) received 840,640 ID cards as a requirement for support for the Dharma Pongrekun and Kun Wardana pairs to register as candidates for Governor and Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta in the 2024 Pilkada.

Dharma-Kun Wardana will register as a candidate pair in the DKI gubernatorial election through an individual or independent route.

"Currently, the DKI Jakarta KPU has received a document of support for the requirements for candidate pairs, the support has been uploaded to Silon," said Head of the DKI KPU Technical Division, Doddy Wijaya, Friday, May 17.

A total of 840,640 supports that have been uploaded to Silon consist of 6,196 Thousand Islands Regency, 516,825 Central Jakarta City, 67,503 North Jakarta City, 139,888 West Jakarta, 60,206 South Jakarta City and 50,022 East Jakarta City support.

The next step, the DKI KPU will carry out administrative verification on 840,640 ID cards supported by Dharma-Kun Wardana until May 29, 2024.

The process of cross-checking hundreds of thousands of ID cards is carried out by checking the validity and veracity of support requirements documents.

In addition to photocopying ID cards, the documents examined are a letter of support statement, the suitability of the data inputted in Silon, as well as a statement of identity for supporters who on e-KTP have a job status as members of the TNI, Polri, ASN, Village Apparatus, or are not yet 17 years old but have already married.

In addition, the KPU also checks the potential for multiplicity of data supporting Dharma-Kun Wardana. The KPU wants to ensure that everyone's support is only given to one candidate.

"If one person gives support to more than one candidate at one election level. So the double support is declared ineligible, we will then clarify it," said Astri.
