ANADO: Vicky Lumentut and Harley Mangindaan beat the other eight candidate pairs to win the Manado municipal election by collecting 35.37 percent of the votes based on quick counts.
“Based on quick counts, the vicky-Harley pair shall win the election in only one round. They have received 35.37 percent from 96.02 percent of votes counted so far,” Shobihatul Musayyadah, director of Citra Public Adv, the subsidiary of Lingkaran Survey Indonesia, said.
Shobihatul added people turning up at ballot booths accounted for 78.35 percent of eligible voters. But the release did not mention the number of the eligible voters.
Shobihatul said that Vicky-Harley’s victory had been expected given the pre-poll surveys, in which the pair had defeated their three close rivals three times. — JP
