Abstract

Young voters have great potential to determine the direction of regional policies, but often show low levels of participation due to various factors, such as lack of information, political apathy, and minimal involvement in the democratic process. This study aims to analyze the role of local governments in increasing young voter participation in the 2024 Regional Head Elections (Pilkada). This study uses a qualitative approach with descriptive methods to examine local government strategies and policies in educating and motivating young voters. Data were collected through interviews, document studies, and observations of relevant government programs. The results of the study show that young voters play an important role in the 2024 Regional Head Elections (Pilkada), with high enthusiasm even though their political decisions are often influenced by external factors such as the social environment, mass media , and peers. The lack of political experience makes them vulnerable to unverified information and emotional campaigns. Therefore, the Regional Government needs to increase the participation of young voters by providing intensive political education, disseminating accurate information, and involving them directly in the election process through cooperation with schools, universities, and youth figures. To overcome apathy, it is also important for the Regional Government to ensure that the 2024 Pilkada is carried out with transparency and fairness, so that young voters can make wiser decisions and actively participate in determining quality future leaders

Abstract

The implementation of an Electronic-Based Government System (SPBE) in Regional Government is aimed at realizing efficient, effective, transparent and accountable work processes, as well as improving the quality of public services. In order for the implementation of SPBE to run according to its objectives, its implementation needs to be regulated based on the principles of Good Governance. This research uses descriptive analysis as a research method, using a qualitative approach and the research results explain that the implementation of good governance can realize people's aspirations in achieving the goals and aspirations of the nation and state. So it is necessary to develop and implement a clear and real system of participation, transparency and accountability so that the implementation of SPBE in Regional Government can take place in an efficient, successful, clean and responsible manner. Apart from that, innovation in implementing SPBE also provides opportunities to realize policy directions and strategies in order to produce faster, better and cheaper supervision systems, government administration systems and public services. On the other hand, regional governments also need to transform government paradigms and processes by integrating planning services, budgeting services, procurement services and electronic-based performance management services. This will create an HR culture for ASN employees who are able to think creatively, systemically, have a global perspective, have a high work ethic, are able to manage strategic environmental changes, and provide proactive services in accordance with community needs.
