Presidential Election in Indonesia

     Today is election to choose the president and vice president. The elections were followed by all Indonesian people is held from 07.00 to 13.00. Two camps supporting each candidate is enthusiastic to follow this election and they hope that they support a presidential candidate will win in this election. Quick count conducted by the mass media is also awaited eagerly.
     Previously, when the campaign period, the two camps supporting each candidate so enthusiastic in doing good campaign in social media such as facebook, twitter, and other media that can be written by the general public. Elections for president and vice president this time, only two candidates, so the feel of competition is felt.
     People can choose when they are given a letter of invitation by the election of the local neighborhood, after the voters came to the polling stations circuitry to bring the invitation letter, will then be given a ballot to vote by way of ballot image presidential candidates are selected using similar tools nails. Paper ballots had been punched inserted into the ballot box, voters before exiting first to dip his finger in blue ink that has been provided by the election committee for a marker that the voters have chosen. However, for the nomads who live in the area can not follow the election by first taking care of the necessary paperwork at the local government such as RT or RW.
     After the election is closed, someone who has not used their right to vote should not vote. Because after the ballot counting will take place quickly.
Even so, not all of the community welcomed the presence of this election. Many are pessimistic because it may not be in favor of both candidates. Any candidate we choose, or even if we do not choose we must keep harmony together. Do not let this election will only make the conflict at the expense of ourselves. Elections have been held, that we can do now is pray that whatever happens, Allah will still provide the best for our state and nation.
