This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of socialization carried out by the General Election Commission (KPU) of Palangka Raya City in increasing the participation of students from the Palangka Raya State Islamic Institute (IAIN) in the regional head general election. The research methods used were surveys and interviews with related parties. The research results show that the majority of students already know information related to general elections, but there are still several obstacles in understanding voting techniques and the importance of using the right to vote. Based on these findings, this research recommends several strategies that the KPU can implement to increase the effectiveness of outreach, such as involving student organizations, utilizing social media, and holding voting simulation activities.

This study examines the implementation of Law Number 8 of 2015 within the context of the General Election Commission's (KPU) strategy to increase young voter participation in simultaneous regional elections (Pilkada).  Employing a normative juridical research method with a statutory approach, this analysis investigates the legal basis and KPU's strategies in efforts to enhance young voter engagement.  The research findings indicate that Law No. 8/2015 and PKPU No. 8/2017 provide a comprehensive legal basis for the KPU to implement strategies for increasing young voter participation through various programs such as school-based socialization, social media campaigns, and collaborations with youth organizations and educational institutions. Factors influencing the effectiveness of these strategies include internal aspects such as human resources, knowledge management, and financial support, as well as external factors such as public political awareness, effective communication, and public response. This research concludes that while the legal framework is adequate, more detailed regulations regarding young voters are still needed, and the strategies implemented by the KPU are in line with existing laws.

According to the above article, it is in line with the regulations that the Regional Head Election is a democratic festivity, but there are several parties that are not allowed to be directly involved. One of them is the Civil Servants (ASN). ASN are state servants in the process of governance. Therefore, ASN are given limitations to remain neutral during this democratic festivity. However, they often face interference or are tainted by the involvement of ASN who should maintain their neutrality as government officials. The main issues in this research are (1) How is the regulation of the General Election Supervisory Agency on the neutrality of Civil Servants in the 2020 Regional Head Election in Ngada Regency? (2) What are the factors causing the neutrality violations of Civil Servants in the 2020 Regional Head Election in Ngada Regency? This research is empirical juridical research based on applicable laws and regulations and data obtained from the field. This research uses respondents and data collected in a descriptive qualitative manner. The aim of this research is to analyze the neutrality of Civil Servants (ASN) in the 2020 Regional Head Election (Pilkada) in Ngada Regency. The focus of the research is on how the regulation by the General Election Supervisory Agency (Bawaslu) affects the neutrality of ASN and the factors that cause neutrality violations. This research uses an empirical juridical method based on applicable laws and regulations as well as field data. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with 10 respondents, including the Chairperson of Bawaslu, former coordinator of the violation dispute handling division, staff of the violation handling division, and ASN. Additionally, observation and documentation were used to complement the data. The research findings indicate that ASN neutrality violations often occur due to various factors, including political interference and the utilization of bureaucracy for Pilkada interests. This research provides recommendations to enhance supervision and law enforcement by Bawaslu to ensure ASN neutrality in every regional head election process in Indonesia.

Indonesia is a constitutional democracy. The authority of the Constitutional Court in examining and deciding cases of disputes over the results of regional head elections has become an old song worked on by the Constitutional Court itself and the Constitutional Court has often withdrawn and canceled its authority in terms of disputes over the results of regional head elections and caused legal uncertainty related to regional head election issues. Then the Constitutional Court ruled that the articles petitioned by the Respondents were contrary to the 1945 Constitution and had no binding legal force. The Constitutional Court is authorized to hear disputes over the results of regional head elections as long as there is no law regulating this matter. Article 1 of Law No. 22/2017 on Regional Head Elections is included in the Election regime, which is carried out directly, publicly, freely, confidentially, honestly and fairly. It is rumored that the 2024 elections will be the cornerstone of the history of simultaneous national elections. This study aims to determine the role of the constitutional court in resolving direct election disputes and to determine the responsibility of special judicial bodies in direct election disputes.

The purpose of the research is to find out the causes of differences in interpretation between the Gorontalo Regency KPU and Bawaslu Gorontalo Regency regarding administrative violations of the 2020 elections in Gorontalo Regency and how the process of resolving administrative violations of the 2020 elections in Gorontalo Regency by the Gorontalo Regency KPU and Bawaslu Gorontalo Regency. This research uses two legal research methods, namely: Normative and empirical legal research to find answers to the differences in interpretation between the KPU and Bawaslu Gorontalo Regency regarding administrative violations of the 2020 Pilkada in Gorontalo Regency. The difference in interpretation between the Regency KPU and Bawaslu Gorontalo Regency regarding administrative violations is caused by overlapping statutory provisions. Where in Law Number 10 Year 201 concerning Pilkada, the two institutions are given the authority to examine and decide administrative violations, then the two institutions in deciding administrative violations have their own guidelines where Bawaslu is guided by Perbawaslu while the KPU itself is guided by KPU Regulations. This certainly does not provide legal certainty for justice seekers in election administration violations and the process of resolving administrative violations in the 2020 Pilkada in Gorontalo Regency, namely through DKPP and Constitutional Court decisions. We do not have to face different decisions between the two institutions because DKPP is an ethical judicial institution while the Constitutional Court is a legal judicial institution. Although there has been a decision from the Constitutional Court, it does not change the DKPP's decision because until now there has been no ethics court to appeal the DKPP's decision.

This study uses a qualitative-descriptive approach, to reveal phenomena related to political literacy based on the results of research documents conducted by the Sidoarjo Regency KPU. as well as information from informants from the KPU of East Java Province. The results of the study conclude that the state of political literacy in the Keboansikep community is still very limited only to literacy related to the electoral process and does not reflect education that is oriented towards strengthening the system of understanding and actualizing the rights and obligations of citizens. The new political education is carried out by the KPU through socialization activities, technical guidance (technical guidance) and voter education which it will carry out in the context of the agenda for the stages of the election that will be held as election organizers. The state does not yet have an educational program to improve systemic and sustainable political literacy. The disappointment of the voting community towards the attitude and performance of the leaders and representatives of the people from the general election results in an anomalous phenomenon where the public is known to have knowledge and understanding of politics but it is not consistent with their attitudes and behavior. In political education, the KPU plays a role in conveying information about the election events it holds and providing political education to the public which is only limited to the electoral context for the sake of increasing the percentage of voters turned out and decreasing the percentage of invalid votes
