Jakarta (ANTARA News) - Presidential candidate Joko "Jokowi" Widodo and his running mate Jusuf Kalla would embrace all elements in the country if they won the recent election, success team spokesman Hasto Kristiyanto said here, Saturday.

The General Election Commission (KPU) is scheduled to officially announce the result of the election on July 22.

Based on various and careful assessments of vote counts it was beyond doubt that the Jokowi-JK pair would come out as winners in the election, Hasto said.

"However we will wait and see the results by the KPU. With a lot of control parameters available and huge volunteer control participation, it is hoped the KPU and the Bawaslu (election supervisory board) would be able to carry out their big responsibilities well and accountability and transparency are assured," he said.

He said the Jokowi-JK team had conducted assessments to safeguard the votes.

"The result is that the Jokowi-JK pair would win by 52.8 to 53.5 percent," he said.

He said, for the Jokowi-JK pair the victory would be dedicated fully to the country and would be used as a momentum for embracing all elements in the society.

"The competition era has passed and it is time now for mustering the nations positive energy," he said.

To all campaign team members Hasto appealed to not be involved in victory euphoria.

"Let the peoples votes become an inscription of change in the national leadership that is more populist. So, the victory must be signified as a new era where power is presence among the people," he said.
