description: Indonesia has recognized the rights of persons with disabilities through the Disability Law  and the Election Law. However, in practice, there are still regulations that hinder the full  participation of persons with disabilities in politics, particularly in candidacy for executive and  legislative positions. The main obstacle lies in the requirement of "being physically and mentally  capable," without clear explanations for persons with disabilities. The implementation of this right  also faces challenges due to the unclear requirements set by the General Election Commission  (KPU), which causes legal uncertainty and may prevent persons with disabilities from running for  office, even if they meet other criteria. The research problems identified are: First, how is the  implementation of the right to be elected for persons with disabilities reviewed in Law No. 7 of  2017? Second, what are the criteria for the ability to perform duties as a requirement for  presidential and vice-presidential candidates, members of the People's Representative Council  (DPR), members of the Regional Representative Council (DPD), and members of the Regional  People's Representative Council (DPRD) for persons with disabilities? This research uses Human  Rights Theory and Disability Theory. The method employed is normative legal research and  empirical legal research, with a descriptive-analytical approach. Data sources are secondary,  consisting of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. Data collection techniques include  literature studies, comparative studies, and field research, analyzed qualitatively and normatively.  The findings show that first, the implementation of the right to be elected for persons with disabilities  under the Election Law has been normatively granted by the state. However, its regulation does not  specifically address persons with disabilities as election contestants, leading to legal uncertainty.  Second, the criteria for eligibility found in this research indicate that persons with disabilities who  run for or are nominated in elections must have sound mental health, while the degree of physical  disability can refer to degrees 1 and 2 of the disability classification under the Ministry of Health  Regulation. Second, various perspectives on the ability criteria must be accommodated to ensure  persons with disabilities are not disadvantaged, as many are competent leaders. The conclusion of  this research is that political rights for persons with disabilities, particularly the right to be elected,  still face barriers, including the stigma of "inability." It is necessary to address various perspectives  in evaluating ability and for the government to show good faith in fulfilling the electoral rights of  persons with disabilities. The recommendations include more detailed regulations on candidacy  criteria for persons with disabilities, synchronization of regulations, and incorporating diverse  perspectives to ensure their rights are voiced and respected.
