Abstract

The increasingly competitive election has triggered a strong enough competition to gain support and victory in the election. This condition causes the candidates participating in the election to take various forms of strategies to achieve victory, including utilizing election organizers, in which the election organizers are involved and act as the main actors in driving other election organizers to assist the electoral interests of one of the election participants (brokers). This study will explain fraud by election organizers also analyze the role and motivation of election organizers as political brokers using brokerage theory. This study uses a qualitative research method with a descriptive-analytical approach. This study indicates that election organizers who act as political brokers have a role in looking for other election organizers to cooperate because the process of changing data or manipulating election results will be more straightforward if several election organizers do it. This role turns out to be mainly carried out by local election organizers, considering they have strategically trusted authority.
