This research found that the implementation of e-voting of Village head in Pemalang Regency have been understood only in terms of a technological Leeway. The government inclined to produce an efficient democracy through the implementation of e-voting. However, the innovation of e-voting has been initiated without sufficient effort allocated for the strategic design to accommodate social and organizational initiatives. Thereby very obvious that e-voting is not meant to be a social utility that has a role in the process of political transformation. Therefore, a more profound education to boost voter digital capabilities are needed to help strengthen the relevance of e-voting in accommodating variations in voter demographic characteristics which in turn will encourage political structural transformation.
