UNS alumni challenged the administrative verification requirements for the registration of presidential and vice-presidential candidates involving high school diplomas (SMA) or their equivalent at the Constitutional Court.

Previously, UNS alumnus Farhan tested the administrative proof requirement for the registration of presidential and vice-presidential candidates in the form of high school diplomas at the MK.

If the diploma requirement is to be maintained, changes need to reach the Election Law with four key aspects.

Petitioners argue that the phrase 'educational institution or secondary education program' in Article 227, letter l of the Election Law restricts the legalization of high school graduation proof.

The lack of recognition for higher education diplomas as an alternative proof under Article 227 letter l of the Elections Law may infringe on citizens' electoral rights.
