Abstract

This study analyzes the legal status of Acting Regional Heads within Indonesia’s constitutional system as a solution to the postponement of Regional Head Elections. The postponement of such elections has the potential to create a leadership vacuum that may disrupt the continuity of regional governance. This research employs a normative juridical method, using both statutory and conceptual approaches. The findings indicate that, formally, the existence of Acting Regional Heads has a valid legal basis. However, there remain normative weaknesses concerning the limits of authority, accountability mechanisms, and democratic legitimacy. Acting Regional Heads do not possess a direct mandate from the people, which may lead to a legitimacy deficit. Nevertheless, their presence remains necessary to ensure the continuity of governance. Therefore, stronger, clearer, and more comprehensive regulatory frameworks are required.
