2019 Indonesian general election

{{main|Elections in Indonesia}}

Elections in Indonesia were previously held separately, with a 2008 elections law regulating that presidential and legislative elections be held at least three months apart from one another. Following a 2013 Constitutional Court lawsuit, however, it was decided that the 2019 elections – which would have been the 12th legislative election and the 4th presidential election – would be held simultaneously. The stated intent of the simultaneous election was to reduce associated costs and minimize transactional politics, in addition to increasing voter turnout.{{cite news |author=Tehusijarana |first=Karina M. |date=8 February 2019 |title=Explaining the 2019 simultaneous elections |language=en |work=The Jakarta Post |url=https://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2019/02/08/explaining-the-2019-simultaneous-elections.html |url-status=live |access-date=29 April 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190513073335/https://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2019/02/08/explaining-the-2019-simultaneous-elections.html |archive-date=13 May 2019}}{{cite news |last1=Kapoor |first1=Kanupriya |last2=Davies |first2=Ed |date=12 April 2018 |title=Indonesia to ensure stability during elections, says president's... |language=en |work=Reuters |editor-last=Fernandez |editor-first=Clarence |url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-indonesia-politics/indonesia-to-ensure-stability-during-elections-says-presidents-chief-of-staff-idUSKBN1HJ110 |url-status=live |access-date=29 April 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190513073337/https://www.reuters.com/article/us-indonesia-politics/indonesia-to-ensure-stability-during-elections-says-presidents-chief-of-staff-idUSKBN1HJ110 |archive-date=13 May 2019}}

In the 2014 presidential election, Jakarta governor Joko Widodo defeated former general Prabowo Subianto to become the seventh President of Indonesia. Despite initially having a minority government, Jokowi later managed to secure the support of Golkar and the United Development Party, giving him control of the legislature.{{cite news |title=Jokowi vs. Prabowo: Who Will Win in 2019? |url=http://insight.jakartaglobe.id/jokowi-vs-prabowo-who-will-win-in-2019/ |access-date=24 September 2018 |work=Jakarta Globe |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180217230714/http://insight.jakartaglobe.id/jokowi-vs-prabowo-who-will-win-in-2019/ |archive-date=17 February 2018 |url-status=dead |df=dmy-all }}{{cite news |last1=Chandran |first1=Nyshka |title=Two years on, Indonesian President Jokowi is just getting started |url=https://www.cnbc.com/2016/10/18/indonesian-president-jokowi-celebrates-2-years-in-office-with-an-eye-on-2019-vote.html |access-date=24 September 2018 |work=CNBC |date=18 October 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180825143217/https://www.cnbc.com/2016/10/18/indonesian-president-jokowi-celebrates-2-years-in-office-with-an-eye-on-2019-vote.html |archive-date=25 August 2018 |url-status=live |df=dmy-all }} In the legislative elections of the same year, former opposition party PDI-P managed to secure the largest share in the DPR, ahead of Golkar and Gerindra.{{cite news |title=Indonesian opposition party leads parliamentary poll |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-26966663 |access-date=4 December 2018 |work=BBC |date=10 April 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181204195453/https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-26966663 |archive-date=4 December 2018 |url-status=live |df=dmy-all }}

To run for the presidency, a candidate had to be supported by political parties totalling 20% of the seats in the DPR or 25% of the popular vote in the previous legislative election.^{:Art. 222} Political parties were allowed to remain neutral if they were unable to propose their own candidate. However, if a neutral party(s) was able to endorse their own candidate, they were required to do so, or face being barred from participating in the next election.^{:Art. 235}{{cite news |title=Parpol tak Usung Capres Belum Tentu Kena Sanksi |url=https://www.jpnn.com/news/parpol-tak-usung-capres-belum-tentu-kena-sanksi |access-date=15 October 2018 |work=JPNN |date=5 August 2018 |language=id |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181205003207/https://www.jpnn.com/news/parpol-tak-usung-capres-belum-tentu-kena-sanksi |archive-date=5 December 2018 |url-status=live |df=dmy-all }}

The voting procedure followed a two-round system, with voters simply choosing one of the candidate pairs. A winning candidate was required to win a majority and at least 20% of the votes in over half of Indonesia's provinces. If no candidate pairs had fulfilled the criterion, the election would have to be repeated with a maximum of two participants.^{:Art. 416}

The KPU was also criticised for giving legislative candidates an option not to publish their resumes. Formappi found that around a quarter of the candidates chose not to publish their information, with a further 18% not having submitted any.
