In the implementation of this Election, Election implementers, government officers, Election contestants, Election supervisors, Election observers, voters and all related parties must have honest attitudes and act honestly in line with the regulations of laws. Each voter and Election Contestant will be treated equally and be free from deception from any parties.

The replacement of Law Number 10 on the Election of Members of House of Representatives, People’s Representatives Council, and Regional House of Representative is required to perfect the electoral system of the House of Representatives, People’s Representatives Council, and Regional House of Representatives as the actualization of the implementation of the state and national life based on the principle of democracy and improvement of the quality of Election implementation from time to time consistently especially based on the experience of the implementation of 2009 Election. The effort to improve the implementation of the Election is a part of the process of strengthening and deepening democracy and the effort to realize an effective presidential government system. With the replacement of Law Number 10 of 2008, it is endeavored that the democratization process will continue to prevail through a more qualified Election and at the same time the process of democratization will run well, manageable and institutionalized.

In order to create a healthy and participative degree of participation, and a transparent and accountable election, election administration and implementation processes must be improved over time. Therefore, it was considered necessary to replace the legal basis for the implementation of Election written in Law Number 10 of 2008 on the Election of Members of House of Representative, People’s Representatives Council, and Regional House of Representative as amended by Law Number 17 of 2009 on the enactment of the Government Regulation as Substitute of Law Number 1 of 2009 on the Amendment to Law Number 10 of 2008 on the

General...

General Election of the Members of House of Representative, People’s Representatives Council, and Regional House of Representative to become Law. A new, comprehensive law can respond to new challenges in election implementation.

In this law, fundamental changes are regulated for the Election of Members of House of Representative, People’s Representatives Council, and Regional House of Representative, particularly regulations related to the perfection of stages of Election implementation, requirements for political parties to become Election contestants, registration of political parties to become Election contestants, time limit for verification of political parties as candidates for Election contestants, mechanism of the use of voting rights for the citizens of the Republic of Indonesia, voters data information system, formation of voters list, Election Campaigning, voting, criteria for establishing electoral districts, confirmation of electoral thresholds, proportional election system, confirmation of elected candidates, and handling of reports related to Election violations, as well as violations against Election implementers; code of ethics, violations against Election administration, Election disputes, Election crimes, Election state administrative disputes, and Election result disputes.

The election period begins at least 22 (twenty two) months before the voting day, with the election stages beginning with the drafting of implementation regulations by Election implementers. Strengthening of the requirements for political parties to become Election contestants is arranged by tightening the requirements of the existence of political party chapters at the province level, at regencies/municipalities within one province and at districts within one regency/ municipality.

This Law also determines that the registration of political parties to become Election Contestants should begin no later than 20 (twenty) months before the voting day and the verification of political parties that register as Election contestants shall have been completed no later than 18 (eighteen) months before the voting day.

Protection of the constitutional rights of Indonesian citizens not registered as voters is ensured by allowing citizens to vote using residential identity cards or passports as identification. This law also orders the formation of voters data information system containing national voters data that must be maintained and updated by the Regency/Municipal KPU so that it can be used during the next Election. Votes are cast by puncturing the number or name of a candidate a single time on the ballot paper. The criteria for establishing electoral districts, Parliamentary Threshold, Proportional Election System, conversion of votes into seats, determination of elected candidates of DPR, Provincial DPRD and Regency/Municipal DPRD members from Election Contesting Political Parties shall be determined based on the most votes acquired by the candidates.
