KOMPAS.TV – Ustaz Abdul Somad’s (UAS) support for the Akhyar-Salman couple, uploaded by his successful team, actually generated negative sentiment from voters.
The analysis was disclosed by a professor of political science at the University of North Sumatra, Fernanda Putra Adela.
Aside from identity politics, the flash floods that hit Medan in early December actually swayed voters not to elect Akhyar Nasution, who has the status of mayor of Petahana Medan.
Meanwhile, according to the executive director of the Indo Barometer Survey Institute, Muhammad Qodari, Akhyar Nasution’s defeat was more influenced by voters’ dissatisfaction with his performance during his tenure as mayor of Medan.
The campaign through the use of religious figures cannot change the perception of the residents of Medan towards the mayor of the current city.
Medan Number 1 Deputy Mayor Akhyar Nasution-Salman Alfarisi admitted his defeat against the Bobby Nasution-Aulia Rahman couple in the quick count version.
Akhyar argued that the results of witness calculations at various polling stations showed that their votes were less than bobi.
Akhyar also accused many “invisible hands” of being involved in the city of Medan Pilkada this year.
