The 2024 Manado mayoral election was held on 27 November 2024 as part of nationwide local elections to elect the mayor of Manado, North Sulawesi for a five-year term. The previous election was held in 2020. Incumbent mayor Andrei Angouw managed to secure a second term, winning 49% of the votes in a four-way race. The second-place candidate, Golkar-backed former mayor Jimmy Rimba Rogi, won 44.5%.[1]

Electoral system

The election, like other local elections in 2024, follow the first-past-the-post system where the candidate with the most votes wins the election, even if they do not win a majority.[2] It is possible for a candidate to run uncontested, in which case the candidate is still required to win a majority of votes "against" an "empty box" option. Should the candidate fail to do so, the election will be repeated on a later date.[3]

Candidates

According to electoral regulations, in order to qualify for the election, candidates are required to secure support from a political party or a coalition of parties controlling 8 seats (20 percent of all seats) in the Manado Regional House of Representatives (DPRD).[4] The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle, which won 16 of 40 seats in the 2024 legislative election, is the only party eligible to nominate a mayoral candidate without forming a coalition with other parties.[5] Candidates may alternatively demonstrate support to run as an independent in form of photocopies of identity cards, which in Manado's case corresponds to 30,033 copies. No independent candidates registered with the General Elections Commission (KPU) prior to the set deadline.[6]
