Abstract

The electoral system influences various other systems such as party systems and government systems. It also affects the psychology of voters (constituents). An open proportional system encourages a high electoral violations and also encourage candidates to compete in mobilizing mass support for their victory. The efforts to seek mass votes are carried out in a pragmatic way, mobilizing the masses by forming a network team and equipping them with some money or other items. An open proportional system impacts election violations in Bantul Regency. It can be seen from the data Bawaslu of Yogyakarta Province. Bantul Regency received the title with the highest election violations in the Special Region of Yogyakarta. Many things cause this to happen, one of the biggest causes is the open proportional system and also Bantul Regency received the title of highest voter turnout in the Special Region of Yogyakarta. Of course this is inseparable from the application of an open proportional system. However, this high participation rate is being debated by many parties because the high number is due to the role of political actors who act pragmatically to mobilize voters to come to the polling stations.

Abstract

The debate about the weakening of democracy in various countries in controlling the COVID-19 pandemic is currently rising. This article aims to describe how the Indonesian government has implemented various pandemic control policies based on the indicators of democracy from the Freedom House, which include transparency, freedom of opinion, human rights, and pluralism. This article uses a qualitative method with a descriptive analysis approach, while data collection uses a literature study focusing on various government efforts and responses from civil society regarding pandemic control. The research results reveal that the policy does not pay attention to the transparency of state budget allocations, including the appointment of goods supplier partners. Threats of doxing against those critical of pandemic control policies interfere with free speech. In the civil society realm, a pandemic’s fear raises the stigma that this virus is identical to the Chinese-ethnic group. This paper concludes that indications of weakening transparency, freedom of opinion, human rights in pandemic control policies, and community responses contrary to pluralism values potentially reduce the quality of democracy in Indonesia.
