South Sumatra Electoral District 9

Finally, in his petition, the petitioner questioned the acquisition of votes for filling members of the Provincial DPRD, South Sumatra Electoral District 9. According to the petitioner, in the South Sumatra Electoral District 9, the vote acquisition for the Nusantara Awakening Party should have been 31,728 votes from the 32,240 votes determined by the respondent. According to the petitioner, if the votes of the National Awakening Party (PKB) and the votes of the Nusantara Awakening Party (PKN) are calculated in their entirety according to C. Hasil Pleno, then it is clear and evident that the vote acquisition of the National Awakening Party (PKB) – amounting to 31,832 votes – exceeds the vote acquisition of the Nusantara Awakening Party (PKN) by 104 votes.

“That the vote acquisition according to the respondent, one National Awakening Party is 31,832 votes and the Nusantara Awakening Party is 32,240 votes, that according to the respondent the vote acquisition of the Nusantara Awakening Party exceeds the votes of the National Awakening Party by a difference of 408 votes. The correct vote acquisition according to the petitioner is the National Awakening Party 31,832 and the Nusantara Awakening Party 31,728 votes,” said Marta Dinata as the Petitioner's Attorney.

The petitioner suspects that this problem arose from the vote count by the District Election Committee (PPK) of Keluang District, Musi Banyuasin Regency, South Sumatra Province. The PPK of Keluang District is suspected of having changed the vote acquisition results by adding (inflating) them to the Nusantara Awakening Party (PKN). As a result, the D. Hasil Kecamatan is not in accordance with the C. Hasil Pleno and C. Hasil Salinan.

Based on the issues in the 3 Electoral Districts that have been conveyed by the petitioner, in his petition the petitioner asks the Constitutional Court to grant his petition by canceling the decision of the General Election Commission Number 360 of 2024 and determining the vote acquisition for the 3 Electoral Districts in question with the correct vote acquisition according to the petitioner.
