President Joko Widodo, also known as Jokowi, declined to comment on the 2024 Central Java Regional Election (Pilkada).

Previously, PDIP DPP Chairperson Eriko Sotarduga said that if they collaborate with PKB to support Anies Baswedan in the Jakarta Pilkada, their party would offer the East Java gubernatorial seat from PDIP. "For example, in Jakarta, if PKB becomes the gubernatorial candidate. Can PDIP become the gubernatorial candidate in East Java? It's possible, not a barter, but that’s what cooperation is, we cannot cooperate selfishly, imposing our ego, as we cannot advance alone," said Eriko at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on Tuesday.

Other figures in the list include former Central Java Deputy Governor Taj Yasin Maimoen, Kendal Regent Dico M. Ganinduto, Muhammad Yusuf Chudlori (Gus Yusuf), and Central Java Police Chief Inspector General Ahmad Luthfi.

KPU RI Chairman Hasyim Asy’ari said that the Information Recapitulation System (Sirekap), claimed to be a vote counting aid during the 2024 Election, will be used again for the 2024 Regional Elections. Since the election and regional election models differ, a new design is being made. "Sirekap is planned to be used for the 2024 Regional Elections because initially, Sirekap was first used in the 2020 Regional Elections. The design and so on are being prepared," said Hasyim at the DPR RI, quoted on Thursday (16/5/2024).

Betty also emphasized that Sirekap for the 2024 Regional Elections will be enhanced and easier to use, given that the number of ballots prepared will not be as many as in the 2024 Legislative Elections. "The number of candidates for the regional elections is not as many as for the legislative elections, for instance, for governor and deputy governor, and simultaneously for mayor or regent and their deputies," explained Betty.

**Puan Says PDIP Considers Nominating Anies Baswedan in Jakarta Pilkada** The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP) is considering the name Anies Baswedan to be nominated in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. The decision to consider nominating the former presidential candidate as Jakarta's gubernatorial candidate came after PDIP DPP Chairperson Said Abdullah met with PKB General Chair Muhaimin Iskandar, also known as Cak Imin, to discuss cooperation in the Jakarta Pilkada. "The existing names will be reviewed later. All names are considered," said PDIP DPP Chairperson Puan Maharani at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on June 25, 2024. Besides the Jakarta Pilkada, Puan also admitted they are considering figures for the East Java Pilkada. "We communicate all names and also try to simulate them because each region has its own peculiarities. So all names need to be considered," she said.

Previously, PDIP DPP Chairperson Said Abdullah mentioned that he had visited Cak Imin's residence to discuss cooperation in the Jakarta Pilkada. Said mentioned that PKB is ready to nominate Anies Baswedan in the Jakarta gubernatorial election. "We visited the PKB General Chair's house, I remember it was after Friday prayers on May 30 before going to Mecca. We talked heart-to-heart, building communication among elites, sharing views," Said clarified. During the meeting, Here's more on food bank nutrition review our own web-site. Said admitted, PKB has a strong opportunity to nominate Anies in the Jakarta gubernatorial election. "As far as I know from PKB, if I’m not mistaken, they are ready to nominate Anies Rasyid Baswedan," he stated. Said mentioned that the meeting's results with Cak Imin had been reported to PDIP Secretary-General Hasto Kristiyanto and PDIP DPP Chairperson Puan Maharani. He said he would also report the view to Chairperson Megawati Soekarnoputri. "Not necessarily with PDIP, we share views, not seeking agreement. My task is to report to Mbak Puan and Mr. Secretary-General," said Said. "Maybe later there will be a meeting with the Chairperson to discuss the results of every lobby or mutual visits among elites," he continued.

"If asked who would be chosen as Governor if the Central Java Pilgub were held today, the results would be Hendrar Prihadi with 23.9%, and in second place, the Chairman of DPD Gerindra Central Java, Sudaryono, with 22.7%," said Johanes.

"No, there hasn't been any," said Hendrar when met after the 10th-anniversary celebration of the Ganjar Grassroots Network Volunteers (Jangkar Baja) in South Jakarta, Friday (April 10, 2024), as reported by Antara.
