Elections are the result of a democratic process. Democracy ought to be supported by education effort to ensure the public is capable to use the democratic system well. It is conducted to achieve the ideals of the country desired by the people and the 1945 Constitution. Political education is one of the tasks of the KPU (General Election Commission) of the Republic of Indonesia. The KPU as the election organizer manages Election Smart Home program as education effort. Nevertheless, it received low participation percentage, hence requiring program improvement. A similar case emerged in Batu City as the percentage of voter participation continued to decline in each election. It started declining from the 2014 legislative election, the 2014 presidential election, and the 2017 local election. The Election Smart Home program of Batu City KPU was implemented only once in 5 months since its ratification. Therefore, this research aimed to determine the issues hindering the implementation of the Election Smart Home in Batu City. This research explored Batu City KPU issues in implementing Election Smart Home using a qualitative descriptive approach, aimed at explaining in detail the implementation of the Election Smart Home program.
