Brilio.net - The Indonesian General Election (Pemilu) took place today, more precisely on February 14 2024. Many people were enthusiastic about voting and even queued at the polling stations. This moment also saw many things that had never been imagined before happening.
It's natural, because elections are a 5-year event. It is not a certainty that people will be able to take part in the next election. Therefore, this rare moment is used as an opportunity for creativity and uniqueness from the community. It is also proof of how diverse Indonesian people are.
One unique thing happened at a polling station in Sorong City, West Papua Province. His appearance can be seen via the Instagram status of one netizen with the username @nenoos97. This post was also reposted by various accounts, one of which is @kopukabar.
The video shows the conditions inside the polling station. It can be seen that there are a lot of papers that are election files. The TPS is a wooden building whose walls are made of plywood.

However, what was unique was one of the voters who came to the polling station. Instead of wearing his usual clothes, this person came in a SpiderMan costume. Other voters who saw the auto laughed.
SpiderMan is a fictional superhero character that appears in comic books. The story is published by Marvel comics. The creators of this Spiderman character are writer and editor Stan Lee and artist Steve Ditko. This character first appeared in the Amazing Fantasy comic in August 1962. And now this character is popular among children and adults.
Basically, there are no special provisions from the KPU that regulate clothing. However, lots of media make outfit recommendations when coming to the polling stations. And so far, no media has made recommendations for this eccentric costume.
However, this adds color to the general election. Moreover, this appearance is unique because spiderman costumes are usually worn by children. Meanwhile, if he can choose, it means he is over 17 years old.

He also came and handed over the files to the KPPS members. After the file was verified, the man in the Spiderman costume walked towards the waiting room. He also queued like other voters.
"Voting with spider webs," wrote the video maker in the caption.
