Palembang City Electoral District 6

In addition to questioning the acquisition of votes for filling the candidate members of the Lahat Regency DPRD, Lahat Regency Electoral District 5, the petitioner in his petition also questioned the difference in votes for the acquisition of seats for candidate members of the Palembang City DPRD in the Palembang City Electoral District 6. According to the petitioner, in Electoral District 6, the Petitioner's Party should have had 8,721 votes from the 8,765 votes determined by the respondent. Meanwhile, for the PDI-P Party, it should have obtained 8,589 votes from the 9,044 votes determined by the respondent. Finally, the petitioner mentioned that for the NasDem Party, it should have obtained 28,335 votes from the 28,110 votes determined by the respondent.

“For PKB, according to the respondent is 8,765, according to the petitioner is 8,721, a difference of 44 votes. Secondly, PDI-Perjuangan according to the respondent is 9,044 votes, according to the petitioner is 8,589 votes, a difference of 456 votes. Thirdly, the NasDem Party, according to the respondent's version is 28,110 votes and the petitioner is 28,335 votes, a difference of 225 votes,” revealed Amril, as the Petitioner's Attorney.

According to the petitioner, the difference in vote acquisition above was due to the addition of votes for PDI-Perjuangan which caused a reduction in votes for NasDem Party Candidate No. 1 in the name of Ali Subri.

“This difference in votes is due to the transfer of votes from the NasDem Party Candidate, Ali Subri, to the PDI-Perjuangan Party,” said Amril.
