Ali said that this mechanism could have an impact on lowering the level of participation due to the absence of known and electable candidates on the ballot papers.<\/p>\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Contest for party leader position<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n<p>Furthermore, the ownership of the right to determine the position and sequence of candidates who successfully advance to become legislatures can also have an impact on party management.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"677\" src=\"https:\/\/unair.ac.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pak-ali.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-184121\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Ali Sahab SIP MSi, political science lecturer from the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, 51动漫..\u00a0(Photo: By courtesy)<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p>\u201cThis system will further strengthen the parties, especially the position of party chairman. So there will be other impacts, the party leader position will be contested,\u201d explained the lecturer, who has worked at UNAIR since 2009.<\/p>\n\n<p>In Indonesia, both systems have been used. A closed-list system was used in the 1955 and 1999 elections, while an open system was used in the 2009, 2014, and 2019 legislative elections.<\/p>\n\n<p>Although each has advantages and disadvantages, according to Ali, an open system is a system that supports the democratic aspects of society.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cAn open electoral system is a system that adequately represents constituency representation, meaning that \u2018half\u2019 voters know who is their representative at the legislative level,\u201d said the lecturer of UNAIR Faculty of Social and Political Sciences (FISIP).
