Jakarta – A member of the General Elections Commission (KPU), August Mellaz, has not ruled out the possibility of the 2024 election results being out on March 20, 2024.
"Yes, it is possible (to determine the election results on March 20), but the point is that we have time until March 20," he said at the KPU Office, Jakarta on Monday.

The KPU is also scheduled to authorize vote recapitulations in Southwest Papua and West Java provinces on Monday night, as quoted from Antara site.
Further, the commission will on Tuesday (March 19) finalize its decision on three provinces that did not participate in the national recapitulation, Mellaz informed.
The three provinces are Maluku, Papua, and Highland Papua.
"Looking at the ongoing process, I think we completed (the vote recapitulation) on March 18th, and we will be able to complete all the recapitulation deadlines on March 19th," he remarked.
Meanwhile, Mellaz revealed that the election result will be discussed at a plenary meeting. However, he could not confirm whether the result would be directly announced on March 20.
"It could be so, but obviously we will discuss it first in plenary," he explained.
