Quick count is only prediction

From Koran Tempo

The Economic and Social Research, Education and Information Institute (LP3ES) has challenged all parties to verify the quick-count method it is using to determine the results of the July 5 presidential election.

Those doubting this method should point out where the error in it lies.

The quick count method has been adopted by Indonesia's young researchers, and they are always ready to put at stake their credibility in this respect.

It is really a shame that many high-ranking officials and national figures have acted as though they do not have a grasp of a scientific approach regarding this quick-count method, simply because the estimated result through this method is not to their liking.
