Now, this must be followed up by political parties," Endun said when contacted by ANTARA in Bandung, Thursday, July 27.Endun explained that the 12 candidates for the internal doubles are candidates who will be promoted by one party, but with more than one electoral district. Meanwhile, the 10 candidates for the external doubles are candidates who will be nominated by more than one party."Now this must be followed up by political parties by analyzing and making a statement regarding the candidate concerned," said Endun.Untuk bakal caleg ganda internal, Endun menjelaskan parpol harus memilih calon tersebut akan ditempatkan pada daerah pemilihan mana dan itu disampaikan dalam surat pernyataan yang diunggah ke aplikasi Sistem Informasi Pencalonan (Silon).As for the external double candidate, political parties must make a statement explaining that the candidate is the envoy.However, Endun also said there was a possibility that the two political parties that nominated the candidate concerned would both make statements."If both claim, the candidate we will call for clarification.
