The results were announced on July 6, 2018.[4] The winner, Ade Yasin, is a former municipal councilor for the regency and is the chairman for West Java's branch of the United Development Party.[5]

Aftermath

[edit]

Following the announcement, the Ade Ruhandi/Inggrid Kansil pair filed a lawsuit to the Constitutional Court of Indonesia.[6] Although the lawsuit was eventually turned down, it resulted in a delay for the swearing in of the regent-elect, which was moved to March 2019.[7][8]
