2024 Indonesia Election Report
On February 14, 2024, voters in Indonesia head to the polls for national elections.

See our pre-election event with Dr. Robert Hefner of Boston University to put Islamic organizations’ roles in the campaign in context, and our Pre-Election Briefing from CAD Undergraduate Research Associate Tristin Black for background analysis of the election.
