Citizenship often seen as administrative matters, but to political discourse, it is very closely connected to the use of political rights. In the case of Indonesia as for example, the Election Commission of the Republic of Indonesia was accused to have innacurate voter list that creates a possibilities to cheat election. Even though the accusation was not approved by constitutional court, but then people aware that there is a serious problem relating with citizenship. The main arguments offered by Election Commission were as in the following arguments: 1) the bad population data as the main source of potential voter list provided by government, due to difficulties in recording people mobility such as migration (illegal migration) 2). Citizen identity card that doubled/tripled or more, therefore the recording of people data based on issuing ID has made the population data is administratively ambiguous. 3) Other technical matters such as budget, human resources, system, etc.
