The requirement of presidential threshold (PT) as regulated in article 222 Act No. 7 Year 2017 about General Election is no longer urgent to be applied in simultaneous general election. The requirement violates against the principles of justice general elections since it ellipse the rights of new political parties to propose candidates of president and vice president. On the other hand, viewing from the presidential system itself, PT requirement in the article 222 Act of General Election has an impairment and needs to reconstruct. This study emphasizes on two issues. First, the urgency to reconstruct political law of PT from the perspectives of presidential system and the simplification of political parties. Second, the concept of PT in the next simultaneous general election. This study results on, first, that in a presidential system, PT is considered as a requirement for the chosen and not a requirement for nominating president and vice president. In presidential systems, the presidential elections do not depend on the results of the legislative elections. Therefore, making the results of the legislative election as a condition for nominating the president and vice president is a violation of the presidential system. Second, PT provisions in terms of nomination requirements should no longer be needed because the purpose of implementing PT is to present a simplification party system and to garner majority support from the parliament against the elected president and vice president will be automatically implemented from the results of simultaneous general elections.

The holding of General Elections in some parts of Papua has its own character because its implementation is different from General Elections in general. If all this time we only know that the General Elections are held "Directly, Publicly, Freely, and Secretly", then there are some areas in Papua that still use the General Election with the noken and / or connective system. This is because the culture of the indigenous Papuan people in terms of decision making concerning the common interest is done through a deliberation meeting by involving the community as a whole or certain people ("Men of Authority" or "The Big Man") alone as representatives to make decisions. This was also strengthened by the Constitutional Court's Decision which essentially stated that it did not matter the voting system used by the indigenous Papuans because the essence in the General Election process was that everyone could exercise their voting rights directly, freely, and confidentially. With the implementation of the General Election the noken system and / or the binding system does not provide guarantees and legal certainty to the constitutional rights of the voters to determine for themselves who they think is best based on their rational logic. Honesty does not only mean that no General Election provisions have been violated or that no vote has been manipulated. Honesty must also be interpreted as the system which best enables the people to elect candidates according to conscientious considerations based on the candidate's capacity and integrity.

Elections are the mandate of the constitution that must be carried out by the government, in this case ensuring and protecting the exercise of people's sovereignty in channeling their political rights in elections.

Money politics is very much against the principles of democracy and the principles of humanity that are fair and civilized (the values ​​contained in the 2nd precepts), leaders must get legitimacy from the people who choose them with democratic principles. Elections with integrity (electoral integrity) must be realized and supported by all parties, including the creation of good governance.

The election is the will of the Indonesian nation to establish itself as a democratic state, therefore elections must be carried out by providing certainty and guarantee, honest, fair, free, and confidential. The toughest challenge faced by democratic countries is overcoming the practice of money politics. This money politics harms democracy and will bury the noble ideals of democracy. Related to the impact of violations on elections, including money politics. The form of this provision must be drafted by law.
