The influence of inclusive policy by the general election commission to the participation rate of voters with disabilities in the 2017 simultaneous regional head elections in Indonesia

In 2019 social media has indeed become a familiar phenomenon for Indonesian people in general. Social media is a communication tool that cannot be abandoned by every individual. In fact, it has become a habit for every individual to share information through social media, because the practical benefits of social media are a means of communication. Social media in its use has many benefits, both positive and negative, like two ends of the sword. The positive value of social media is used as a means of communication, a means of sharing information for voters, and a means of socializing between the KPU and the public. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method by describing the data obtained from the General Election Commission (KPU) of Bantul Regency by analyzing data taken directly from the documents of the General Election Commission of Bantul Regency (KPU Bantul). Voter Participation in Bantul Regency shows a higher participation rate compared to participation in the 2014 Election. The difference between the 2014 and 2019 Elections lies in the number of voters. In 2014 Facebook was used while in 2019 it was using Instagram. The percentage of voter participation in 2019 showed 87.9% of the total number of voters, while in 2014 voter participation was only 81% (Republika.co.id). In the 2014 Election, the KPU did not use Instagram to disseminate information about the Election, while the 2019 Election showed good participation.Di tahun 2019 media sosial memang menjadi fenomena yang tidak asing lagi bagi masyarakat Indonesia pada umumnya. Media sosial merupakan alat komunikasi yang tidak bisa ditinggalkan oleh setiap individu. Bahkan sudah menjadi kebiasaan setiap individu untuk berbagi informasi melalui media sosial, karena manfaat praktis media sosial adalah sebagai sarana komunikasi.Media sosial dalam penggunaannya memiliki banyak manfaat, baik positif maupun negatif, ibarat dua ujung pedang. Nilai positif media sosial digunakan sebagai sarana komunikasi, sarana berbagi informasi bagi pemilih, dan sarana sosialisasi antara KPU dengan masyarakat.Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif kualitatif dengan mendeskripsikan data yang diperoleh dari dokumen Komisi Pemilihan Umum (KPU) Kabupaten Bantul dengan menganalisis data yang diambil langsung dari dokumen Komisi Pemilihan Umum Kabupaten Bantul (KPU Bantul). Partisipasi Pemilih di Kabupaten Bantul menunjukkan angka partisipasi yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan partisipasi pada Pemilu 2014. Perbedaan Pemilu 2014 dan 2019 terletak pada jumlah pemilih.

Prospective Model

The election of regional leaders conducted directly by the community is believed to result in a democratic government. The formed government is expected to be more open, more responsive, and to carry out the aspirations of the people so that it can realize a government that comes from the people, by the people, and for the people. A person can nominate him/herself as a candidate for Regent or Deputy Regent if supported by some residents, by Political Parties or Combined Political Parties. The relatively weak support of the population or political parties or combined political parties has resulted in very few candidates for regent or deputy regent, even only one pair of candidates can occur as in Pati Regency. The study aims to know how the policy in the future (Prospective Model) should be taken so that the single-candidate for Regent or Deputy Regent in a general election does not happen. By using a sociological juridical approach, collecting primary and secondary data, processing and analyzing data, the objective of the study can be reached.The policy that needs to be taken by the government so that in the future there will be no single candidate is by giving obligations to political parties to conduct cadre recruitment to become candidates for regional leaders. Besides, the General Election Commission needs to make a scheme that is easier and more flexible for individual candidates regarding administrative requirements, procedures, and mechanisms for gathering support, and there needs to be a new policy so that the potential for a single-candidate can be eliminated or not occur.

The election organizer is obliged to implement every principle in the election. The online National Counting System (Situng) is one of a series of election organizer activities in fulfilling the principle of openness to the public. Improving the quality of service in the General Election aims to increase public trust in the implementation of elections. According to Nunkoo, the principles of transparency and knowledge must be possessed by activity organizers in an effort to increase public trust. Research with this quantitative method looks at how much influence the online national counting system (situng) information (study of the 2019 Election results) has with a study on the people of Medan City. The findings in this study indicate that the process of transparency and increasing knowledge of the people of Medan City has significantly shaped Public Trust in the 2019 Election. The act of transparency has a bigger effect than increasing knowledge of online counting. Given the large role of transparency in shaping public trust in Medan City, this activity needs to be further enhanced to provide a better understanding to the public. And it does not rule out that online situng can increase public knowledge in the electoral field. Situng online is also expected to be an extension of the General Election Commission (KPU) in increasing public knowledge as a basis for experience in the election.
