JAKARTA - Deputy Minister of Home Affairs (Wamendagri) Bima Arya Sugiarto emphasized that the results of the 2024 DKI Jakarta Pilkada remained valid even though these achievements were obtained among residents who did not use their voting rights, aka goalput reached around 42 percent.
"Yes, it's still valid," Bima said as quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, December 10.
However, the Deputy Minister of Home Affairs still assessed that the high level of political participation would make democratic legitimacy even better.
Bima Arya said the next issue of legitimacy of the results of the 2024 Pilkada was regarding the legitimacy of the performance of the elected regional head government itself.
"Now the public is waiting for these elected regional heads to show their legitimacy through their performance, and we will monitor it together with the government," he said.
Because, according to him, many regional heads with narrow votes in the regional elections were able to show the good performance of their government.
"So what is certain is that this round has been passed even though the level of political participation is at several low points," he said.

The Deputy Minister of Home Affairs does not deny that public saturation with general elections until natural weather is also a factor in the low voter participation rate in the 2024 Pilkada.
"There may also be factors that have saturation factors there, then there may also be weather factors, disasters like that. We can see in some areas because this season is indeed a disaster season, so it reduces participation. There are also fewer polling stations (voting stations), so the distance is far between voters to polling stations," he said.
The total number of voters who exercise their voting rights in the Jakarta Pilkada is 4,724,393 people, from the permanent voter list (DPT) as many as 8,214,007 people.
This means that there are 3,489,614 people or 42.48 percent who do not exercise their voting rights on voting day.
