2024 Depok mayoral election

The 2024 Depok mayoral election will be held on 27 November 2024 as part of nationwide local elections to elect the mayor of Depok for a five-year term. The previous election was held in 2020.

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. 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.

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 10 seats in the Depok Regional House of Representatives (DPRD). The Prosperous Justice Party, with 13 seats from the 2024 legislative election, is the only party eligible to nominate a mayoral candidate without a coalition. Candidates may alternatively demonstrate support in form of photocopies of identity cards, which in Depok's case corresponds to 90,563 copies. Although there were consultations, no such candidates registered with the General Elections Commission (KPU) within the allowed time.

Incumbent mayor Mohammad Idris had served two full terms as mayor, and hence was ineligible to run in the election.

Potential
The following are individuals who have either been publicly mentioned as a potential candidate by a political party in the DPRD, publicly declared their candidacy with press coverage, or considered as a potential candidate by media outlets:
 * Imam Budi Hartono (PKS), incumbent vice mayor.
 * Kaesang Pangarep (PSI), chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party, youngest son of president Joko Widodo and younger brother to vice president-elect Gibran Rakabuming Raka.
