Meanwhile, the commission confirmed that the vote counting information system (Situng) would not affect the determination of the 2019 election results because the official recapitulation was still being done manually.
The vote recapitulation took place from April 18 to May 22, 2019, and was carried out manually and in stages, starting at the sub-district level, then the district/city level, the province and then the national level.
