JAKARTA, KOMPAS — The Constitutional Court's decision to give the General Elections Commission (KPU) the authority to draw up electoral districts (dapil) and to determine the allocation of district seats at the House of Representatives (DPR) and the provincial legislative councils (DPRDs) presents an opportunity for equal representation in the 2024 election.
To date, there is still significant disparity in the "value" of votes among electoral districts.
