How many polling stations are in JKT?
We sure didn’t hear much about the Indonesian elections, but maybe I’m just particularly out of it. I guess there were no street riots afterward or anything sensational like that. Hope you are well.
Whoops, sorry I didn’t see this in the queue. If it’s still any use, I believe there were in the neighborhood of 12,500, for almost 7,690,000 voters.
