JAKARTA - The joint working team for the preparation of the 2024 General Election and Regional Head Elections, has agreed on a schedule for the 2024 General Election/Pilkada, Thursday, June 3.
The joint working team consists of Commission II of the DPR RI, the Ministry of Home Affairs (Kemendagri), the General Elections Commission (KPU), the Election Supervisory Body (Bawaslu), and the Election Organizers Honorary Council (DKPP). The team discussed the design of the 2024 General Election proposed by the Indonesian KPU.
"At the first session meeting, Thursday night, June 3, several things were agreed upon. First, the D-Day of the 2024 Simultaneous Election is Wednesday, February 28, 2024," said Deputy Chairman of Commission II of the Indonesian House of Representatives Luqman Hakim, Friday, June 4.
"The two D-days of the 2024 Simultaneous Regional Head Elections are Wednesday, November 27, 2024," he continued.
Furthermore, Luqman explained other points agreed in the joint working team meeting. Namely, the stages of the 2024 Simultaneous Elections begin 25 months before the D-Day of voting, in January 2022.
In addition, he said, the requirements for candidacy in the 2024 Simultaneous Regional Head Elections are the results of the 2024 Provincial/Regency/City DPRD Member Elections. This includes vote acquisition and seat acquisition in the 2024 General Election.
"The five important points have been mutually agreed upon in a joint working team meeting on Thursday night," he explained.
Furthermore, said Luqman, the joint working team will continue the meeting on Friday, June 4, because there are still many crucial issues that must be discussed related to the 2024 Election.
These problems include many election organizers, namely members of provincial and district/city KPU whose terms of office expire in 2023, 2024, and 2025. According to him, some think this will disrupt the implementation of the election stages.
"Whether all election organizers will be extended until 2025, the recruitment process will be advanced in 2022, or will it remain in accordance with the period that has the potential to disrupt the implementation of the election stages," said the PKB politician.
