REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs, Djoko Suyanto asked each president and vice presidential candidate to invite their supporters to think proportional because the quick count was not an official results of vote.

"The legitimate and official results of voting count will only be announced by General Election Commission (KPU) on July 22," Suyanto said on Thursday.

Suyanto said that the quick count result conducted by independent institutions of both candidates was not the end result. Both of them claimed each victory and it should be addressed wisely and calmly.

"Both presidential candidates (Prabowo Subianto and Joko 'Jokowi' Widodo) must invite their supporters to behave and act appropriately, do not act excessively and maintain the security," he added.

Any anarchic action will harm this nation. Voting process, which is running safely and peacefully should be maintained until July 22.

Prabowo-Hatta used three pollsters collaborating with TV One and Vivanews. The three pollsters are Indonesian Survey Network or JSI (50.28 percent), Puskaptis (52.05 percent) and National Survey Institute or LSN (50.54 percent). In four other pollsters, the No. 1 presidential candidate is five percent below Jokowi. For example, Radio Republik Indonesia (RRI) with the incoming votes of 87 percent, Jokowi-JK won 52.51 percent compared to Prabowo-Hatta 47.49 percent.
