Hello reader,

What I hope never changes about our election system is that uncontested elections don’t necessarily guarantee a winner. Candidates still have to outright beat “kotak kosong” to win an election, and that has led to some embarrassing and amusing situations in which everybody loses.

Cheers,

Andra
