Electoral system
The election, like other local elections in 2024, follow the first-past-the-post system where the candidate with the most votes wins the election, even if they do not win a majority.{{cite news |title=Pilkada Hanya Satu Putaran |url=https://kedaikopi.co/infografik/pilkada-hanya-satu-putaran/ |access-date=20 May 2024 |work=kedaikopi.co |date=22 July 2020 |language=id}} It is possible for a candidate to run uncontested, in which case the candidate is still required to win a majority of votes "against" an "empty box" option. Should the candidate fail to do so, the election will be repeated on a later date.{{cite news |last1=Mardika |first1=Nando Yussele |title=Jika Kotak Kosong Menang, Pilkada Akan Diulang? |url=https://www.hukumonline.com/klinik/a/jika-kotak-kosong-menang-pilkada-akan-diulang--lt5fa3d3b3f2139/ |access-date=16 April 2024 |work=hukumonline.com |date=5 November 2020 |language=id}}
Candidates
According to electoral regulations, in order to qualify for the election, candidates were required to secure support from 24 seats in the East Java Regional House of Representatives (DPRD). The National Awakening Party (PKB), with 27 seats, is the only party eligible to nominate a candidate without forming a coalition with other parties.{{cite news |title=PKB Siapkan Cagub Perempuan untuk Lawan Khofifah di Pilkada Jatim |url=https://www.liputan6.com/pemilu/read/5598565/pkb-siapkan-cagub-perempuan-untuk-lawan-khofifah-di-pilkada-jatim |access-date=17 May 2024 |work=liputan6.com |date=17 May 2024 |language=id}} However, following a Constitutional Court of Indonesia decision in August 2024, the political support required to nominate a candidate was lowered to between 6.5 and 10 percent of the popular vote.{{cite news |last1=Wibawana |first1=Widhia Arum |title=PKPU Nomor 10 Tahun 2024: Isi Pasal Perubahan dan Link Unduh |url=https://news.detik.com/pilkada/d-7508797/pkpu-nomor-10-tahun-2024-isi-pasal-perubahan-dan-link-unduh |access-date=26 August 2024 |work=detiknews |date=26 August 2024 |language=id-ID}} Candidates may alternatively demonstrate support in form of photocopies of identity cards, which in East Java's case corresponds to 2.04 million copies.
