This study aims to examine the implications and impacts of the age limit on the democratic process and leadership in Indonesia. The method used in this research is a qualitative method with a normative juridical approach through literature study. The data collection technique in this research is by analyzing the literature, decisions of the constitutional court, books, scientific articles, and various other scientific reading sources related to the material discussed in this study, namely the Age Limit for Presidential / Vice Presidential Candidates (Legal Analysis of MKRI Decision No. 104 / PUU-XII / 2020). As per Law Number 7 of 2017 respecting General Elections (Election Law), Article 169 letter q, five applications cannot be accepted regarding the age limit of presidential and vice presidential candidates (presidential and vice presidential candidates).
