Realizing a General Election With Integrity Through The Role of Supervision Against Technical Operator

Abstract

This writing is motivated by the existence of doubts about the credibility and integrity of the General Election Commission (KPU) as the commissioner of technical organizers of the General Election. To answer these doubts, the researchers conducted research by prioritizing the authority of Bawaslu as mandated by Act No. 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections. The authority of the General Elections Supervisory Body (Bawaslu) is expected to be able to prevent and overcome alleged violations by the KPU in order to realize the results of the General Election with integrity. The analysis used in analyzing the above problems is by using the theory of supervision and the theory of popular sovereignty. The data that has been obtained were analyzed qualitatively and then presented descriptively.
