Prabowo Still On Course For 1st Round Win According To Quick Count

INDONESIA

Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto is on course for a comfortable first round win according to unofficial partial vote counts. Pollster Litbang Kompas has Prabowo on 59.8% of the vote with 50.7% of votes counted. Former Jakarta Governer Anies Baswedan is second on 22.8% and former Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo third on 17.3%. In order to win in the first round, Prabowo will not only require 50%+1 of the nationwide vote, but also more than 20% of the vote in over half of Indonesia's 38 provinces.

  • RTRS: "Private pollsters are tabulating votes at a sample of pollion stations across the country, known as "quick counts". In previous elections, the counts from reputable companies have proved to be accurate."
