Begini Cara Hitung Suara Parpol Untuk Dapat Kursi di Pemilu 2024

Summary

This video explains the Saint-Lague method, used for calculating seats in Indonesia's legislative elections, based on votes received by political parties. The method involves dividing the vote totals by odd numbers (1, 3, 5, 7, etc.) to determine seat allocation. The process includes three stages: determining parties passing the parliamentary threshold, allocating seats, and selecting candidates. The method's application is demonstrated through an example with five political parties in a district, and key dates for the 2024 election process are provided, with vote recapitulation from February 15 to March 20, and inauguration on October 10, 2024.

Takeaways

• 😀 The voting process has ended, and the focus is now on vote counting and seat allocation based on the Saint Lague method.
• 😀 The Saint Lague method, introduced by André Saint-Laguë in 1910, is used to determine the allocation of parliamentary seats.
• 😀 This method works by dividing political party votes by odd numbers (1, 3, 5, 7, etc.) to calculate how many seats each party should receive.
• 😀 In the example provided, five political parties are contesting five available seats, with different vote counts.
• 😀 Party A, with 36,000 votes, receives the first seat as it has the highest votes initially.
• 😀 The second seat is allocated to Party B, as its vote count is higher than others after Party A has been allocated the first seat.
• 😀 For the third seat, Party A and Party B are divided by 3, while the other parties remain divided by 1. Party C wins the third seat.
• 😀 Party A secures the fourth seat after being divided by 3, while Party B and Party C also share the same divisor.
• 😀 The fifth seat is won by Party D, as the remaining parties' vote counts are calculated based on the divisions by odd numbers.
• 😀 The process of vote counting and seat allocation involves multiple stages, including determining political parties that pass the parliamentary threshold and calculating which candidates from each party win seats.

Q & A

What is the Saint Lague method and how does it relate to Indonesian elections?

The Saint Lague method is a system used to convert votes into seats in the Indonesian elections, specifically for the District, City, or Provincial DPRD and the Indonesian House of Representatives. It was introduced by French mathematician André Saint-Lague in 1910, and it determines how seats are allocated to political parties based on the number of votes they receive.

What is the process of seat allocation using the Saint Lague method?

In the Saint Lague method, political party votes are divided by odd numbers (1, 3, 5, 7, etc.) to allocate seats. The party with the highest number of votes at each stage of the division receives the next available seat.

How are the political party votes calculated for seat allocation?

Votes are calculated based on the combined votes of all party candidates. The political parties' votes are then sorted, and seats are allocated by dividing the total votes by odd numbers, with the party having the highest result at each step receiving the seat.

What happens if a political party already has a seat?

If a party has already received a seat, its votes are divided by the next odd number for the subsequent seat allocation. For example, after receiving the first seat, a party's votes would be divided by 3 for the next seat.

How is the seat allocation process illustrated in the script?

The script uses an example of an electoral district with five political parties, where each party's votes are divided by increasing odd numbers to determine seat allocation. The party with the most votes at each step is awarded the next seat.

How many seats are available in the example provided in the script?

In the example, there are five seats available for allocation in the electoral district.

What happens when a political party reaches the parliamentary threshold?

Political parties that pass the parliamentary threshold, which is 4% of the total valid votes, are included in the seat calculation. Parties that do not meet the threshold are excluded from this process for the Indonesian House of Representatives (DPR) but not for the Provincial or Regency/City DPRD.

What are the stages involved in the seat calculation process for the DPR?

The seat calculation for the DPR involves three stages: (1) determining which political parties pass the 4% parliamentary threshold, (2) determining the number of seats allocated to each political party, and (3) determining which legislative candidates within each party will receive seats.

Does the parliamentary threshold apply to the Provincial and Regency/City DPRD elections?

No, the parliamentary threshold does not apply to the Provincial and Regency/City DPRD elections. These elections only have two stages: determining the seats for each political party and selecting the candidates who will receive seats.

When will the KPU carry out the vote recapitulation process and the inauguration of new members?

The KPU is scheduled to carry out the vote recapitulation process from February 15 to March 20, 2024. The inauguration of new members of the DPR and DPRD will take place on October 10, 2024, followed by the inauguration of the president and vice president on October 20, 2024.
