SOEKARWO-SAIFULLAH WIN
East Java gubernatorial candidate Soekarwo and his running mate Saifullah Yusuf on Tuesday defied all quck counts results to win the vote by a narrow margin over the pre-election favorites. They defeated Khofifah Indar Parawansa and her running mate Mudjiono by a mere 60,000 votes. Khofifah then protested the final tally by the East Java General Election Commission (KPUD), saying she would bring the case to the Constitutional Court after citing alleged vote rigging.
