The Urgency of Modifying Regulations for the Safety of General Election Organizers in 2024

General elections in Indonesia have been held 12 times, namely in 1955, 1971, 1977, 1982, 1987, 1992, 1997, 1999, 2004, 2009, 2014 and 2019. And, the general election simultaneously and costing not a few lives occurred in 2019. Basically, the simultaneous general elections held in 2019 had many irregularities, especially the large number of members of ad hoc election organizers who fell ill and died. This happened in almost every region. Does the 2019 general election have anything to do with the increased workload of ad hoc election organizers due to the simultaneous implementation? Type of research uses normative legal research methods. It is called so, because normative research focuses on prescriptive research, using secondary data such as laws and regulations, legal theories, legal principles, and scientific works of legal scholars. The problems that occurred in the 2019 general election can be anticipated by making adequate regulatory modifications in order to create a rational, humane authority, and better election management than the previous period. There needs to be a guarantee of the quality of direct, general, free, secret, honest and fair elections. The implementation of simultaneous elections has provided a heavy workload, long implementation time and very tiring manual vote counting. Members of the voting and counting organizing group need to be protected by making some kind of regulation in their favor.___ References Books with an author: Gaffar, Janedjri M. (2013).
