Should the candidate fail to do so, the election will be repeated on a later date.
Candidates

Candidates may alternatively demonstrate support to run as an independent in form of photocopies of identity cards, which in Bandar Lampung's case corresponds to 59,260 copies. Aaccording to the General Elections Commission, no independent candidates registered or expressed interest in running by the set deadline.
