This article aims to analyze the comparison between these two electoral systems, focusing on their respective advantages and disadvantages. The research method employed is a comparative analysis, gathering data through literature review and analysis of elections in Indonesia. The analysis reveals that the open electoral system is more proportional, as it excels in expanding public participation, enhancing political representation, and strengthening party accountability.
