Overview
In Indonesia on February 14, 2024, the electoral system, in my opinion, still looks traditional. I can say this because many election participants do not have time to attend election activities. Moreover, waiting for the invitation queue can also extend the activity process. As for the slightly deviant case, there are also those who participate in election activities just to join in without considering their choices or doing independent research. I think there is also a lack of information sources from local media that classify the personalities of each election candidate. So, in my opinion, there is a need for product innovation that can be an efficient solution to change this system so that participants can also participate in election activities, but also they do not leave important things or activities in their day, and election participants are equipped with insights or in-depth research before choosing a candidate. Therefore, I innovated to create a product design called "Election Application".
Emphatize

User Flow
Main Features
-Authentication Screen: The "Election Application" Authentication screen like any other app starts from the login screen using a simple form with username and password input. There is a forgot password option to anticipate user negligence. This is followed by verification of the OTP code sent via SMS. The image above that I posted may have been cropped, you can see more details in my dribbble account post.
-Homepage: The app's homepage displays important information such as trending news, available features, and election calls. There is also a "Vote" button as a clear and accessible navigation for users to instantly switch screens to the list of institutions.
-Election Menu: The election menu in this application provides voting services for candidates (all positions) in a state institution. In this app, users have to first select the post of the candidate they want to vote for. Here, users can see the list of positions in its entirety, which means that there is no limitation of positions in this application so that users can vote for candidates in a position flexibly according to the list of positions that are already available, but still pay attention to the election schedule limit. After that, they can vote for the candidate along with their party information.
-Data Analytics Feature: The data analytics feature presents accurate data so that users can get analysis as well as predictions of which candidates will succeed in winning positions based on the percentage of the most votes.
-Candidate Exploration Feature: The candidate exploration feature provided by the application for users has the aim that users can find out the personality of each candidate.
