Golkar Party followed in the second place with 14.3 percent, while Gerindra was in the third place with 11.9 percent and the National Awakening Party (PKB) took the fourth place with 9.5 percent.
The ruling Democrat Party was ranked fifth with 9.4 percent, followed by National Mandate Party (PAN) with 7.4 percent of votes; the United Development Party (PPP), the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) and the National Democrat each with 6.8 percent; the Conscience Party (Hanura) with 5.4 percent; the Crescent and Star Party (PBB) with 1.6 percent; and the Indonesia Unity and Justice Party (PKPI) with 1.0 percent.
"PDIP won the legislative elections but its vote collection was lower than previous predictions by a number of pollsters," senior researcher Phillips J Vermonte said at a CSIS and Cyrus Network press conference.
According to him, Jokowis high electability did not help raise PDIPs vote collection.
He said PDIPs legislative candidates had relied too much on the Jokowi effect, so they did not work hard enough to reach out to their constituents. Candidates from other parties had worked harder and as a result their vote collection was not much lower than PDIPs.
"Based on the results of vote counting by CSIS and Cyrus Network, PDIP will have to cooperate with other parties in the presidential election scheduled on July 9 because other parties vote collection was also quite high and determining," he added.
The quick count by CSIS and Cyrus Network was conducted at 2,000 polling stations in 77 election districts based on a random sampling method, with random quality reaching 99.1 percent and rate of participation at 75.3 percent.(*)
