Ganjar Pranowo Camp to File Court Case Against Election Results Soon

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Ganjar Pranowo-Mahfud Md National Campaign Team (TPN) legal deputy member, Heru Muzaki, confirmed that his camp intends to file a legal case to challenge the results of the 2024 Presidential Election at the Constitutional Court (MK) on Saturday, March 23.

“It will be tomorrow (March 23) at 4 pm,” Muzaki said in a statement to Tempo on Friday, March 22.

When asked why they did not file it on the first day, as the campaign team of candidate number 01 had done, Muzaki confirmed that there was no particular reason. “There is no special reason. We are still in the process of finalizing the application,” he said.

Muzaki could not yet confirm whether Ganjar will attend the registration of the election dispute (PHPU) case at the Constitutional Court. However, TPN chairman Arsjad Rasjid, legal deputy Todung Mulya Lubis, and other legal teams will undoubtedly be present.

Ganjar, who was backed by PDIP, PPP, Perindo Party, and Hanura Party, stated on March 20 that he would file the legal case directly with the Constitutional Court.

On March 20, the General Elections Commission (KPU) declared that candidate pair number 02 Prabowo Subianto and Gibran Rakabuming Raka won the 2024 presidential election with 96,214,691 votes. Candidate pair number 01 Anies Baswedan and Muhaimin Iskandar secured 40,971,906 votes, and Ganjar Pranowo and Mahfud MD garnered 27,040,878 votes.
