The South Tangerang Elections Commission has set
Feb. 27 next year as the date for the re-run of the mayor elections, after the
results of the first effort were thrown out by the Constitutional Court.
The ballots from the re-run will be counted from
Mar. 4 to 22.
The commission said no campaigning of any kind
would be allowed ahead of the re-run. The candidates, it said, could run social
programs, but did not elaborate, Metrotvnews.com reported.
All candidate tickets will appear on the ballots
in the re-run. The tickets are Airin Rachmy Diany-Benyamin Davnie, Arsid-Andre
Taulani, Yayat Sudrajat-Narodom Sukarno, and Rhodiyah Najibhah-Sulaiman Yasin.
The Constitutional Court ordered the election be
repeated after finding that Airin Rachmy Diany and Benyamin Davnie's victory
had benefited from vote rigging.
