<![CDATA[The difference between election (Pemilu) and regional head election (Pilkada) systems stems from Constitutional Court decision No. 97/PUU-XI/2013. This decision states that the Constitutional Court does not have the authority to handle disputes over election results, unless a Specialized Judicial Body has not been established. However, the question is whether the Constitutional Court is still authorized to handle disputes over election results after Constitutional Court Decision Number 85/PUU-XX/2022, and whether there needs to be an adjustment regarding this authority in the 1945 Constitution.
