When will the governor and deputy governor-elect elected for the 2024 regional elections be inaugurated?
Jakarta (ANTARA) – The 2024 Simultaneous Regional Elections have been carried out with a voting process to determine the elected pair of Governor and Deputy Governor. However, the public is now asking, when exactly will the inauguration of the elected Governor and Deputy Governor take place?
Referring to the rules stated in article 22A, the inauguration of the Governor and Deputy Governor elected as a result of the 2024 Simultaneous Regional Election is scheduled to take place on February 7 2025.
This date has been set as the official moment for the inauguration of regional heads at the provincial level throughout Indonesia.
This inauguration schedule refers to Presidential Regulation (Perpres) Number 80 of 2024.
This regulation is an amendment to Presidential Decree Number 16 of 2016 which regulates the procedures for inaugurating the Governor and Deputy Governor, Regent and Deputy Regent, as well as Mayor and Deputy Mayor.
This decision is contained in the Presidential Decree signed by President Joko Widodo which stipulates that the inauguration of the elected governor and deputy governor will be held in early February 2025.
Meanwhile, the inauguration of the elected Regent and Mayor is scheduled for February 10 2025.
This is because the 2024 Simultaneous Pilkada was held on November 27 2024. The vote counting and recapitulation process continued until the results were determined by the General Election Commission (KPU) on December 15 2024, according to the predetermined schedule.
The schedule for the inauguration of regional heads is prepared taking into account the possibility of disputes over election results. This aims to provide sufficient time for the necessary legal and administrative processes before the official inauguration takes place.
However, the inauguration schedule may change if there is a dispute over the election results which is submitted to the Constitutional Court (MK). The Constitutional Court accepts requests for disputes over regional election results until December 18 2024, and the resolution process can affect the timing of the inauguration of elected regional heads.
