The Constitutional Court will rule Monday on whether to uphold president-elect Prabowo Subianto’s landslide February election victory, following two weeks of courtroom drama and public appeals in response to a spate of ethics scandals that have soiled the democratic process.

On Tuesday, the Constitutional Court accepted concluding notes from all related parties in the 2024 presidential election dispute as well as at least 10 amici curiae briefs from parties not related to the case, allowing justices to start a series of closed-door meetings ahead of the ruling on April 22.

Bobby Nasution had been tapped to be among the leading candidates to run for governor on the ticket of the Golkar Party, with which he has been closely linked after splitting with the PDI-P last year.

Four ministers of President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo's administration defended the social aid distribution during the campaign season of the 2024 presidential election, claiming that the aid, which was planned accordingly and approved by the legislature, would not be enough to sway a large number of voters.

Plans to pursue a legislative inquiry into alleged irregularities in the February presidential election have failed to gain momentum as the House of Representatives went into recess on Thursday, without a single political party aligned with losing candidates bringing their proposal to the floor.

A lawyer representing the General Elections Commission (KPU) called the petition filed by contesting candidates Anies Baswedan and Ganjar Pranowo "misdirected" and supported only by unfounded claims.

The Constitutional Court began hearing disputes related to the February presidential election on Wednesday, with former candidates Anies Baswedan and Ganjar Pranowo alleging widespread state interference and nepotism and calling for a revote under modified circumstances.

The legal team of losing presidential candidate Anies Baswedan on Wednesday requested the Constitutional Court order an election re-run and disqualify president-elect Prabowo Subianto, alleging state interference to sway the outcome in his favor.

Ongoing election disputes haven’t stopped Prabowo and Gibran from discussing who gets to join their government later this year, should the Feb. 14 election results stand.

The Constitutional Court had received more than 250 election result disputes by the registration deadline on March 23, including one from Ganjar Pranowo-Mahfud MD's legal team seeking a revote and a disqualification of the Prabowo Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka candidate pair.

The legal team of the other losing candidate, Anies Baswedan, also filed a case, calling on Thursday for the court to order an election re-run that excludes Gibran, alleging his last-minute inclusion unfairly swayed the vote.

Prabowo won last month’s race by a double-digit margin, having ridden on the coattails of President Jokowi, who has led the country on a fierce development drive that has won accolades among predominantly young voters.

Prabowo Subianto's camp has said that they are communicating with other parties outside its electoral alliance, including the NasDem Party, which was the president-elect's first stop on his political tour after the official KPU announcement.

With the final vote tally confirming a decisive win for Prabowo, his rivals’ legal teams are scrambling for a revote and an opportunity to set the record straight.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Chinese President Xi Jinping were among those who congratulated the president-elect.

From outgoing ministers to popular singers and comedians, familiar faces are making their way to the House of Representatives after last month's legislative election.

Presidential candidate Anies Baswedan declined to concede after the results were released on Wednesday and his team has alleged the current administration had unfairly sought to influence the contest, which authorities have rejected.

He thanked the outgoing President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo, whose tacit backing helped Prabowo win at his third attempt.

The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) has won the popular vote in the 2024 legislative election, according to the final General Elections Commission (KPU) vote tally, with the Golkar Party following in a close second.

Prabowo secured 96.2 million votes, 58.6 percent of the total cast, according to the final tally.

On the eve of the General Elections Commission’s (KPU) Wednesday deadline for the announcement of the 2024 presidential election results, the poll body had finished assessing returns from 36 of the country’s 38 provinces, with Papua and the Papua Highlands the only two remaining.

Presumptive presidential election winner Prabowo Subianto will need to maintain a “cordial relationship” with outgoing leader President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo if he is to fulfill many of his ambitious campaign promises, experts have said, as they weigh in on the likely challenges faced by a Prabowo administration.

The General Elections Commission (KPU) is racing to finish its tiered vote tabulation of last month’s general election after sluggish progress in several provinces, including West Java, has cast doubt over the poll body’s ability to meet its March 20 deadline.

Medan Mayor Bobby Nasution, who is also President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo’s son-in-law, has said he will join the North Sumatra gubernatorial election in November.

Claiming to have found evidence that last month’s election was rigged, the rival camps of presumptive president-elect Prabowo Subianto are completing preparations to challenge the results at the Constitutional Court, which will open for disputes next week.

Several world leaders have congrulated the defense minister for his presumptive victory in the 2024 general election based on quick count results.

Political parties behind presumptive presidential election winner Prabowo Subianto appear to have distanced themselves from a potential race to capture the House of Representatives speakership from the largest party in the legislature, the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P).
