One of the most important aspects in holding general elections is the system used. There are various types of general election systems that have been implemented in Indonesia, one of which is a proportional system which is divided into 2 (two) types, namely an open proportional system and a closed proportional system. Of course, these two systems raise debate in people's lives, there are pros and cons. The development of a proportional system and legislative general elections, especially in the election of members of the People's Legislative Assembly in Indonesia, can be the key answer to choosing this system in general elections in Indonesia.
