2024 Lampung gubernatorial election

The 2024 Lampung gubernatorial election will be held on 27 November 2024 as part of nationwide local elections to elect the governor of Lampung for a five-year term. The previous election was held in 2018.

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 17 seats (20 percent of all seats) in the Lampung Regional House of Representatives (DPRD). As no political parties won 17 or more seats in the 2024 legislative election, coalitions are required to nominate a candidate. Candidates may alternatively demonstrate support to run as an independent in form of photocopies of identity cards, which in Lampung's case corresponds to 490,434 copies. One candidate, Ahmad Muslimin, began the registration process with the General Elections Commission (KPU) but did not manage to submit sufficient proofs of support by the set deadline. Muslimin cited the short amount of time provided to submit the large number of documents, along with prohibitive costs.

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:
 * Arinal Djunaidi (Golkar), incumbent governor and chairman of Golkar's Lampung branch.
 * Hanan A. Rozak (Golkar), member of the House of Representatives and former regent of Tulang Bawang.
 * Umar Ahmad (PDI-P), former regent of West Tulang Bawang.
 * Rahmat Mirzani Djausal (Gerindra), member of Lampung DPRD and chairman of Gerindra's Lampung branch.
