Abstract

Every general election is always accompanied by legal products that are regulated in law. The experience of implementing general elections in Indonesia since the old order, the new order, and the reform order has always been changing. Every amendment to the Election law is always carried out prior to the implementation of the Election on the grounds of the evaluation results of the previous Election. Changes to the electoral law are also always carried out by a package of changes to the election administration law and the law on political parties. This package of changes to laws is also called the package of changes to political laws. Then how about the changes in the post-reform election law? As in the previous elections, there have been changes in laws. A fundamental change in the post-reform Election system is the Decision of the Constitutional Court (MK) number No. 22-24 / PUU-VI / 2008 regarding judicial review of Article 214 letters a, b, c, d, and e of Law 10/2008. That is, with this Constitutional Court decision, of course there has been a change in the Election system from a closed proportional system to an open list proportional system. However, without realizing it, this change has actually opened the space for candidate competition to widen. Because candidates no longer depend on the serial number but depend on the ability to get the most grassroots votes. Changes in the Election system will be followed by changes in campaign strategies and changes in campaign finance by individual candidates and political parties. As a result, the campaign strategy of distributing money towards the end of the campaign was carried out massively. This fact cannot be covered up, which has implications for party financing. Massive open wars of money politics encourage political political parties to be able to provide financial access assistance for candidates to win the competition. This is where the dynamics of campaign finance begin, which implies that campaign finance is very expensive.

Abstract

This article is arranged based on qualitative research results with a case study approach in one of the major political parties in Indonesia. This research found that recruiting regional leader candidates by political parties is not open and undemocratic. There are fraudulent actions and anomalies in the recruitment of regional leader candidates. The practice of buying and selling recommendation letters from the central party is real and occurs. Even though it is carried out secretly by some party elites, the perpetrators seem to be in a black market, as their existence is carried out tactically and cautiously. The selection of regional leader candidates conducted by political parties is followed by all groups, both from outside the party and cadres of the party itself. In reality, those with adequate political resources, especially from a financial perspective, will get party approval.

Abstract

This article explains the depictions of candidate figures in the 2024 presidential election. The aim of this study is to find out how to portray presidential candidates as victims who are persecuted by the cruelty of the authorities who side with the candidate team of Prabowo Subianto and Gibran Rakabuming Raka. The important question raised in this research is why the scenario of becoming a victim needs to be carried out. The main reason is because the team of Anis Rasyid Baswedan and Muhaimin Iskandar, as well as Ganjar Pranowo and Mahfudz MD did not receive support from President Jokowi. So, to get help from the voters, these two teams created a scenario of becoming victims, in order to get electoral support. In this research, we chose to use a qualitative method with a case study approach with the aim of being able to see and hear more closely the various election experiences in Indonesia, especially after the collapse of the New Order regime. The focus of the study is directed at constructing how to gain electoral support in the face of non-neutrality of government officials, politicization of social assistance, engineering of legal rules, and politicization in other forms which result in creating a backlash to gain sympathy from voters in the election. This article specifically discusses the dynamics of the 2024 presidential election in Indonesia.

Abstract

The aim of this article is to explore the trend of declining votes for Islamic parties in contemporary Indonesia, both at the national and local levels. In particular, it examines the failure of the Partai Persatuan Pembangunan (PPP) in the 2024 elections. Some perspectives argue that the defeat of Islamic parties in Indonesia stems from their inability to adapt their ideological platforms, internal factionalism, and identity crises. Other views suggest that shifts in the ideological orientation of Islamic voters, who increasingly favor nationalist parties over Islamic parties, have also contributed to their electoral decline. This study employs a qualitative method with a sociological institutionalism approach, arguing that empirical sociological conditions played a decisive role in shaping the defeat of Islamic parties in the 2024 election. At least seven factors contributed to the failure of long-established Islamic parties to secure the support of Muslim voters. Chief among these was prolonged internal conflict, while additional factors included leadership crises, weak coordination and communication between central and regional legislative candidates, the loss of charismatic figures, misaligned endorsements of presidential and vice-presidential candidates, campaign strategies that failed to appeal to young voters, and inadequate financial and logistical resources.

Abstract

This study employs a qualitative method with a case study approach on village head elections in two villages in Central Java to explore the role of the brondot strategy in democratization. This strategy utilizes rewards, primordial issues, and political clientelism to establish political hegemony, aiding incumbents in winning contests and avoiding significant competition, with hopes of victory without buying votes. Brondot is closely linked to familial political networks, leveraging biological relationships for network tactic control. Family's role in political elections and generational inheritance influences this strategy. The study provides insights into local political position elections without significant expenses, relevant in Indonesia where buying votes is a common practice.
