Abstract
Democracy places humans as owners of sovereignty, which is known as the principle of popular sovereignty. The implementation of elections in Indonesia underwent reforms to the point where a judicial review was proposed regarding the implementation of direct elections. Decision of the Constitutional Court Number 14/PUU-XVI/2013 regarding the Review of Law Number 42 of 2008 concerning the General Election of the President and Vice President against the 1945 Constitution, the Constitutional Court emphasized that the election for members of the DPR, DPD and DPRD and the election for president and vice president was held simultaneously. It is an interesting polemic, the holding of the General Election and Pilkada will be carried out simultaneously in 2024 under two different legal umbrellas because in 2021 the DPR and the Government have agreed to withdraw the revision of the Election Law from the list of the National Legislation Program (Prolegnas). Several challenges must be faced in the implementation of the 2024 Election and Pilkada, including the use of two different legal regimes (the Election Law and the Pilkada Law), it is necessary to harmonize the two systems because the overlapping stages create confusion in their implementation.
