The 2024 Central Kalimantan gubernatorial election will be held on 27 November 2024 as part of nationwide local elections to elect the governor of Central Kalimantan for a five-year term. The previous election was held in 2020.
The election, like other local elections in 2024, follow the first-past-the-post system where the candidate with the most votes wins the election, even if they do not win a majority. [1] It is possible for a candidate to run uncontested, in which case the candidate is still required to win a majority of votes "against" an "empty box" option. Should the candidate fail to do so, the election will be repeated on a later date. [2]
According to electoral regulations, in order to qualify for the election, candidates are required to secure support from a political party or a coalition of parties controlling 9 seats (20 percent of all seats) in the Central Kalimantan Regional House of Representatives (DPRD). [3] The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle, with 10 out of 45 seats from the 2024 legislative election, is the only party eligible to nominate a candidate without forming a coalition with other parties. [4] Candidates may alternatively demonstrate support to run as an independent in form of photocopies of identity cards, which in Central Kalimantan's case corresponds to 193,512 copies. No independent candidates registered with the General Elections Commission (KPU) prior to the set deadline. [5]
The incumbent governor, Sugianto Sabran, has served two terms and was ineligible to run in the election. [6]
