Jakarta (Antara) - The General Election Commission (KPU) has been given 30 days to make corrections to the eligible voters list (DPT), according to KPU General Chairman Husni Kamil Manik. "We have been given one month's time to make the corrections. The Election Supervisory Board (Bawaslu) will later evaluate it. We are now going to verify it and complete the information on the voters' Population Registration Numbers (NIK) in the field, along with the director general for population and civil registration affairs," Husni Kamil Manik said. The KPU announced the completion of the eligible voters list during an open plenary session on Monday, with the number of voters reported at 186,612,255 throughout the country, including 93,439,610 male voters and 93,172,645 female voters. In the eligible voter's list, 10.4 million were initially considered problematic and did not match the local population information, yet the KPU said it has made corrections and reduced the number to seven million voters. Of these seven million voters, the KPU will now check in the field, with the assistance of the director general for population and civil registration affairs. (*)
