PekanBARU - Pekanbaru City Government, Riau Province encourages local population offices and civil records to accelerate the printing of electronic identity cards for novice voters for the 2024 General Election. "We encourage Disdukcapil to support the printing of novice voters' ID cards, in order to participate in elections," said Pekandako Regional Secretary (Sekdako) Pekanbaru Indra Pomi Nasution, quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, July 4. Previously, the General Election Commission (KPU) and the Election Supervisory Agency had also encouraged local governments to record electronic ID cards for novice voters. Pekanbaru City Government according to him also handed over a number of ID cards to several novice voters. This was done on the moment of Pekanbaru's Birthday some time ago. "We have submitted several ID cards to young people who have just had ID cards," explained Indra. The ID card recipients are only 17 years old in conjunction with the Pekanbaru Anniversary. Eating from that he hopes for high participation from the community with novice voters in the 2024 Election. "Young children in Pekanbaru City who already have ID cards can participate in the upcoming 2024 elections. They as novice voters can give voting rights in ballot booths," he said. He also explained that for the 2024 election, socialization has been carried out in a number of schools. He considered it to be a series of election socialization to novice voters.

In the election, young people can vote according to their conscience. They are given an understanding about the election. "Socialization in schools is indeed held as education for novice voters," he explained.
