The candidate: Reports of 'massive' cheating
Presidential candidate Ganjar Pranowo's staff says they have received reports of "structural, systematic and massive fraud" in the Indonesian presidential election, Reuters reports.
In a first count after polls closed on Wednesday, controversial candidate Prabowo Subianto received more than 50 percent of the vote, which would mean there would be no runoff.
Ganjar Pranowo received around 20 percent of the votes in the same poll.

Prabowo in big lead after "quick count"
The controversial candidate Prabowo Subainto has over 60 percent of the vote in Indonesia's presidential election after a "quick count" of just over 20 percent of the vote, AFP reports.
Prabowo is the current defense minister and was a former close ally of the dictator Suharto. He is criticized, among other things, for his previous brutal handling of democracy activists and the occupation of East Timor.
In the quick count, none of Prabowo's rival candidates gets more than just over 20 percent.
The final results of the presidential election are expected next month.
