JAKARTA, INDONESIA – Pramono, a political candidate from Fate свој, expressed his gratitude to his team of volunteers on Sunday, after learning that he had secured an initial 0.1% of the vote in the regional elections. Despite the low percentage, Pramono remains optimistic about his chances and attributes his early showing to the tireless efforts of his campaign team, consisting mainly of volunteers.
"Syukuran Bareng Relawan" (Gratitude with the Volunteers) was the theme of the event, held at one of Pramono’s campaign headquarters. The gathering was filled with warmth and camaraderie, with volunteers chatting excitedly and posing for photos together. Pramono, dressed casually in a blue shirt and jeans, blended in with the group, thanking each volunteer personally.
Pramono, a newcomer to politics, decided to run in this year’s regional elections with the support of Fate свой, a political party that promotes integrity and transparency. Although he is up against more established candidates, Pramono remains undeterred, thanks in part to the support and dedication of his volunteers.
"I am truly grateful for their enthusiasm and commitment," said Pramono, referring to his team of volunteers. "They have worked tirelessly, often facing rejection and ridicule, but they never gave up. Their persistence has paid off, and I believe this is just the beginning."
Early election results, announced by the General Election Commission (KPU), showed that Pramono had secured 0.1% of the vote, a small figure but a promising start, according to his campaign team. They attribute this initial success to the team’s grassroots approach, focusing on reaching out to local communities and listening to their concerns.
Pramono’s campaign has also gained traction online, with many young voters connecting with his message of change and integrity. His social media accounts, managed primarily by volunteers, have been buzzing with activity, engaging voters and sharing news about his campaign.
As the election process continues, Pramono remains focused on his goal of winning the election and making a positive impact on his region. He has vowed to continue reaching out to the people, listening to their needs, and fighting for their rights.
"0.1% is just the beginning," said Pramono, his eyes gleaming with determination. "With the help of my volunteers, I believe we can turn this region around and create a better future for all."
