Implementasi prinsip negara hukum dalam pelaksanaan pemilihan umum di Indonesia
Abstract
Elections are a cornerstone of democracy, enabling direct public participation in determining national policy directions. In Indonesia, elections play a crucial role in maintaining political stability and national development. However, their implementation is often marred by administrative violations, fraud, and low public trust. This study analyzes the extent to which the rule of law principles are implemented in Indonesian elections, focusing on regulation, supervision, law enforcement, and public participation. Using a qualitative approach through document analysis and participatory observation, the results show that although election regulations support the rule of law principles, their implementation faces many challenges. The integrity and independence of the General Elections Commission (KPU) and the Election Supervisory Agency (Bawaslu) are often tested by political pressure and resource limitations. Low public participation and lack of political awareness are also obstacles. To address these challenges, regulatory revisions, strengthening of supervisory bodies, and enhancement of voter education programs are necessary. Transparency in every stage of the election must be improved with information technology. Continuous efforts and synergy among various stakeholders are expected to improve the quality of election administration in Indonesia, thereby strengthening the foundation of a just and sustainable democracy.
