Since the first election policy was enacted simultaneously, it does not mean that it does not have potential problems, instead it causes other problems, which require extra time and energy in doing recapitulation. Simultaneous elections consist of presidential elections, DPR elections, Provincial DPRDs, City / Regency DPRDs, DPD, the more they are elected, the more influential is the time of voting and the time of vote recapitulation. The longer the voting time is done by the voters, the longer the recapitulation time. The longer time of recapitulation results in the fatigue of KPPS members which triggers inaccurate work and prone to manipulation and fraud so that it can damage the quality of elections. This study aims to determine the estimated time needed for voting for ballots in elections using the Multilayer Perceptron Artificial Neural Network (ANN) approach. The resulting time estimate is based on the time of the voter in the voting booth. The results of this study indicate that ANN with the Multilayer Perceptron Algorithm can calculate the estimated time required for ballot balloting by producing the best combination of learning parameters with 4 hidden neurons, learning rate 0.001, and 2000 epoch iterations resulting in an RMSE value of 108,015 seconds.

The sole candidate in the local leader election has become a phenomenon in the world of democracy in Indonesia. The sole candidate in the local leader election in Indonesia, is considered a solution to the impasse of democracy since 2015. This phenomenon has become a solution as well as a polemic in the community, because it is full of monopoly power. This study examines the implementation of a sole candidate in the local leader election in Bone Regency and its implications on the democratic process. This research is classified as field research with qualitative methods, while the approach used is descriptive analytic. The data sources of this research are based on primary data and secondary data. Primary data were taken from the results of interviews and observations. The results of this study indicate that the practice of selecting a sole candidate (choosing an empty column) in Bone Regency is not in the same breath as democracy and reduces the interests of the people's sovereignty in electing a leader. Some of the implications that arise include: a monopoly on political parties, injuring the interests of local communities, sole candidate competition which results in harassment and complications of pressure on voters who campaign for empty columns. As a result, people feel that their rights are not taken into account in the local leader election. The implication of this finding is that in responding to the practice of selecting sole candidates as in Bone Regency, there are many problems, so the sole candidate competition must be ended immediately because it is not in tune with the philosophical meaning of democracy.

Furthermore, the role of the General Elections Commission in increasing the political participation of the people in Agam Regency only put banners on the highway, the results of which found that the implementation of the election must be far from Money politics. In line with the findings discussed above, The Election Commission in Agam Regency has performed its duty as the organizer of the General Election, especially in the Regional Head Election of 2015.

In the election commission which must be done to overcome the problem of the general election to be completed as soon as possible in a policy to optimize all problems that arise in the field of elections to the electoral commission. The problem of the campaign does not stop at that point alone, the candidates who have spent a lot of money in meeting the needs of their campaigns sociologically assume it is their capital occupied the seat of office which is analogous to the venture capital. As a milestone for the party of democracy party, KPU can use its authority to make regulation (KPU regulation) about the limit of number of candidate's fund to conduct campaign. In the law it is regulated that the financial aspect of the candidate is audited by a public accountant but the way tends to be easily by using funding out of the candidate's fund. This can be seen in ICW's research on the time-making of technical rules related to campaign funds that are very late, In addition to experiencing delays in terms of preparation time, the substance of the arrangements also seem normative. Some of the additions included in this support rule even seem to be absurd and unworkable. Existing rules are deemed not to support the achievement of transparency and accountability of campaign fund.Keywords: Election, Money Politics, KPU
This study investigates the differences between the SOEs and non-SOEs financial performance and how the presidential election affects their performance. This study uses 3,716 firm-year observations for firms listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange from 2001 to 2014 as the final sample and uses regression to test the hypotheses. In Indonesia, on average, about 25 parties involved in the presidential election in the past three elections. Due to the complexity of the data collection, this study omits the effect of the unique political parties that also could affect the performance of SOE. This study finds that SOEs outperform financial performance of non-SOEs over the sample periods. Interestingly, this study also finds that the excellent financial performance of SOEs disappears around the election period. It indicates that being a board member of state-owned enterprises (SOEs) is a political position rather than a professional position. For policymakers, these results indicate that election periods influence (reduce) the financial performance of SOEs in Indonesia. This study enhances our understanding of how presidential elections affect the performance of SOEs in Indonesia.
