He was the best-performing Perindo Legislative candidate of the 2024 Indonesian general election, both in his home province of West Nusa Tenggara and also nationally, with 182,024 votes. However, the party failed to win any seats in the House of Representatives of Indonesia, particularly because it did not reach the electoral threshold of 4% of votes, only winning 1.29% of the vote.[3]
