Abstract

The arrangement of the election organizers in Law Number 7 of 2017, is something strategic for the development of democracy. From the aspect of public interest contained in it, the law is basically a public policy. The General Election Commission (KPU), the Election Supervisory Body (Bawaslu) and the Election Organizing Honorary Council (DKPP) are both designated as election organizers, in their organizational arrangements there are differences. With normative juridical research methods and literature, it appears that as a product of public policy, this law has regulated several organizational dimensions, and must be followed up with more operational policies. The arrangement of the KPU's organizational dimensions is more than that of Bawaslu and DKPP. The arrangement of the organizational dimensions of DKPP is the least compared to KPU and Bawaslu. There are inconsistent and incomplete arrangements of several organizational dimensions, as well as arrangements for different organizational characteristics among the three election management bodies. From the political aspect, the organization of Bawaslu and DKPP is more complete than that regulated in the previous law, adding to the weight of both institutionally. It is necessary to rearrange the organizational dimensions of the three institutions in a more proportional manner.
