Different from the most significant challenge during this implementation election common in the district of Pekalongan is the level of participation people tends to be low because of the condition of geography and topography different in the district Pekalongan. The results of this study conclude that first, with the high political participation of voters during the COVID-19 pandemic, the opportunity for people to come to the polling station is significant. However, the topography and geography of the region also have a significant influence because each region provides equal opportunities for voters to come to the polling station. Second, implementing the 2020 Pekalongan Regent and Deputy Regent Elections can be carried out safely and adequately with high voter political participation. High voter political participation was achieved by 77.75% and exceeded the national target. That is equal to 77.50%. So it is also higher than in the previous elections. The findings show that the local government of Pekalongan Regency is more innovative in increasing the political participation of its people.
