Beginner voters are a potential voter base for elections to be held, but various
problems still occur such as the difficulty of an ineffective bureaucracy, the
technical requirements in general elections for someone who is not in their area
of ​-​-domicile seem to be complicated, and the lack of human resources from the
KPU. Another problem is that novice voters are prone to being politicized and
made into commodities. For this reason, a policy model is needed that can be
implemented to ensure that first-time voters are smart and free from identity
politics, namely that the first solution is that the Ministry of Home Affairs must
order Dukcapil throughout Indonesia to immediately record and issue e-KTPs to
first-time voters. even 17 years old completed by the end of December 2023
accompanied by Technical Instructions or a Circular Letter issued. In addition, the
KPU must actively socialize it to all of its staff down to the lower level, especially
to the KPPS. KPU must be more intense in carrying out political literacy by
conducting voter education for first-time voters so that they become smart
voters. Also, the need to increase the number of KPU members so that they can
carry out their duties and functions evenly and do not mind the burden that must
be carried out.
