Abstract

The development of information technology in the early 2000s presented new challenges for Indonesia’s criminal justice system, particularly when Dani Firmansyah hacked into the General Elections Commission’s (KPU) National Tabulation System in 2004. This act was not explicitly regulated in the legislation in force at the time, placing judges in a dilemma between the obligation to fill a legal vacuum and adherence to the principle of legality. This study aims to analyze the legal reasoning employed by the judge in the Central Jakarta District Court Decision No. 1322/Pid.B/2004/PN.Jak.Pus, evaluate its consistency with the principles of criminal law and the principle of legality, and formulate a more appropriate legal reconstruction. The study employs a normative legal method using statutory, case-law, and conceptual approaches. The results indicate that the judge applied analogical reasoning regarding Article 406 of the Criminal Code and an extensive interpretation of Articles 22, 38, and 50 of the Telecommunications Law. This practice raises a legal dilemma because it has the potential to violate the principle of legality; however, Indonesian judicial practice shows that creative interpretation is often employed to fill legal gaps. The reconstruction of legal doctrine should emphasize a balance between legal certainty, justice, and public interest, using the Telecommunications Law as a more accountable legal basis.

Abstract

This study analyzes the legal vacuum regarding the oversight of “blank-column” volunteers in regional elections with a single candidate. The phenomenon of single candidates, which occurred in 37 regions during the 2024 regional elections, sparked the emergence of the “blank-column” volunteer movement as a form of resistance against the lack of democratic competition. Although the “blank column” option is legally recognized under Article 54C of Law No. 10 of 2016, the legal status, rights, and limitations on the activities of “blank column” volunteers are not specifically regulated, resulting in a legal vacuum. This normative legal study employing legislative, conceptual, and case-based approaches finds that the absence of regulations hinders the effectiveness of the Election Supervisory Agency’s (Bawaslu) oversight, as it can only adopt a persuasive approach; creates procedural disparities between candidate pairs and volunteers; and threatens the quality of democracy and the legitimacy of the regional elections. The study recommends a comprehensive regulatory update governing the legal status of “blank-column” volunteers, campaign mechanisms, the obligations of the General Election Commission (KPU), and the authority of Bawaslu so that single-candidate regional elections can proceed fairly, democratically, and proportionally.
