Women's Victory Contest 2019 Election

摘要

This research aims to reveal the victory of women legislative candidates in the 2019 election contestation in the electoral district of East Java 1 for the DPR RI. Women are able to win battles with more competitors than groups of men. This victory is based on several criteria, namely: first, electoral regulations require 30% of women's quota which is facilitated in the process of nominating legislative elections; second, the election of female candidates for the DPR RI which has more numbers is based on quantity; third, in one religious-based political party, women gain victory. This phenomenon is interesting to be displayed in a scientific study so that it can be used to measure women's participation in the development of democracy or how voters see women as contestants who dare to fight with male legislative candidates.
