Abstract

The purpose of this research found out how to determine the threshold for president candidate and vice president candidate in Indonesia as an effort to realize sovereign voters. This research was juridical normative with a statutory approach. From the results of the research, it was found that there was a legal imbalance that required political parties to nominate pairs of candidates for president and vice president based on the acquisition of seats or the acquisition of valid national votes. The resulting conclusion is the determination of the threshold for the nomination of president and vice president in the 2019 simultaneous general elections and subsequent general elections based on seats or the acquisition of valid national votes for political parties after the implementation of the legislative general election. The resulting recommendation was the abolition of the legal rules governing the requirements for submitting presidential candidate and vice-presidential candidate in general elections in Indonesia for political parties by amending law number 7 in 2017 concerning general elections.
