Deputy Chairperson of PAN Eddy Soeparno responded to the question of Paslon Cagub and Cawagub Jakarta number 1, Ridwan Kamil-Suswono, who was highlighted for voting at their respective residences, namely in Bandung and Bogor, West Java.

According to him, it doesn't matter if the RIDO pair does not vote in Jakarta as his candidacy area. He is also a legislator for the Cianjur and Bogor electoral districts, West Java, instead identified as a citizen of Jakarta.

"Oh, good, I don't have a problem, I was also a member of the council when I ran in Cianjur district and Bogor district, I didn't vote in any of those places, I still voted in Jakarta," said Eddy, Tuesday, November 26.

In fact, he continued, the 7th President of the Republic of Indonesia Joko Widodo when running for governor of Jakarta in the 2012 Pilkada also had an ID card in Solo, Central Java.

"When we chose the governor, a few years ago, Mr. Jokowi also did not vote in Jakarta, because he did not have a Jakarta ID card, he was still elected. I don't think that is an excuse for the community to change their choice," said Eddy.

The plan, the Deputy Chairperson of the MPR will vote at the Kemang TPS, South Jakarta. He considered, the most important thing for regional heads running outside the region is to have a commitment to develop the area they lead.

"What is important is the commitment of regional heads to be able to fully contribute to the community," said Eddy.
