The method used is normative, using a statutory approach and a conceptual approach, focusing on studying secondary data, and then analysing qualitatively-descriptively. The implications of the issuance of the Constitutional Court (MK) Decision on the binding nature of the DKPP decision include: First, it is only binding on the President, the General Election Commission, Provincial Election Commission, Regency/City General Election Commission, and the Election Supervisory Board. Second, the binding nature of DKPP's legal product in the form of a Decision must be interpreted as a Decision of State Administrative Officials (beschikking) which is individual, concrete, and final, not the nomenclature of "decision (verdict)". Court legal considerations, namely: The phrase "final and binding" has been submitted to a judicial review in the Constitutional Court against the previous election law, guaranteeing legal certainty and eliminating legal confusion about the nature of DKPP decisions which are different from the nature of judicial decisions in general, DKPP institutions are placed on an equal footing with the Bawaslu and KPU.
