He explained that the receipt of applications is indirectly done through the Dispute Resolution Information System (SIPS) application.

"Petitioners can submit their application, which is three days from the issuance of the KPU's official report or decision letter," said the man who is familiarly called Bagja.

In Perbawaslu 2 of 2020, Bagja demonstrated open deliberations and closed deliberations.

"If in the closed deliberation process no consensus is reached, then the dispute settlement will be continued by open deliberation," he explained.

"The period for completion is no longer than 3 days from the time the application is received by the Provincial Bawaslu, Regency/City Bawaslu, or the District Election Supervisory Committee," he said.

"The use of government facilities and programs in overcoming community difficulties, especially for the incumbent, the difficult economic conditions of the community during the Covid-19 pandemic opened up space for money politics, community participation in monitoring and exercising voting rights decreased," he said.
