On 14 February 2024 independent quick counts showed Defence Minister Prabowo Subianto and Gibran winning about 58 percent, enough to avoid a runoff. He declared victory that night. The Fact stored here is the completed first-round contest result as a democratic instrument. Dynasty-machine weather is a separate worsening row the same day.

Context

Age-rule sat as parent. Neighbouring Jokowi-machine row is the same night’s cost path. He did not sit as the pollsters.

KPU 20 March is a child certificate.

The President of Indonesia heads the national executive, appoints Cabinet, and is commander-in-chief of the TNI. A former Defense Minister and former Kopassus commander does not write a Komnas HAM report, a Constitutional Court age-rule, or a Chinese SOE nickel smelter by himself. A Komnas HAM finding is not a criminal verdict unless a court so holds. A campaign pledge is not a gazette.

Why it matters

The path is democratic resilience: a completed first-round majority in a single-day national vote.

What the sources establish

KPU’s 20 March certificate is a child.

General Elections Commission of Indonesia carries the official instrument or communique. Reuters records the same dated act independently.

Established: 14 February 2024 first-round majority on quick counts later matching KPU, independently reported.

Pollsters counted. He was the candidate. KPU later certified.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies Prabowo–Gibran win a first-round majority in the 2024 presidential election, not a later speech about Prabowo–Gibran win a first-round majority in the 2024 presidential election.

Co-authors and later implementers named in Context remain on the file. If a later repeal, stay, or successor instrument exists, it needs its own date and its own row. The contribution described on this Person row is limited to Voters chose. Pollsters counted. He was the candidate. KPU later certified. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series.
