STUDY ON PROS AND CONS ARMY-POLICE ACTIVELY APPOINTED AS REGIONAL HEAD

This study will identify the pros and cons of active ARMY/POLICE being appointed as regional heads in 2022. In its journey, Indonesia has changed in organizing general elections; from the beginning, the public was allowed to vote for candidates from 2004 to the present. Ahead of the Simultaneous Regional Head Elections in 2024, several regions in the country will experience a leadership vacancy due to the expiration of the terms of office of governors, and regents/mayors starting in 2022. To fill the vacancy in leadership positions, the government can appoint an official until simultaneous regional elections are held in November 2024. This becomes a problem because the appointment of active TNI-Polri officers as acting (Pj) regional heads has caused a polemic. This study uses qualitative research using secondary data from news and journals related to the research. The results of the study indicate that some support this, it can be done with a note that the active TNI/Polri in office must still be supervised, and the positions occupied are equivalent to their duties. However, not a few refuse because this can reduce the value of democracy, and the TNI/Polri, which should focus on state security, will bring back the Dual function (dwifungsi) of the Armed Forces, which can disrupt the political system in Indonesia

Perils and Challenges of Social Media and Election Manipulation Analysis: The 2018 US Midterms

One of the hallmarks of a free and fair society is the ability to conduct a peaceful and seamless transfer of power from one leader to another. Democratically, this is measured in a citizen population's trust in the electoral system of choosing a representative government. In view of the well documented issues of the 2016 US Presidential election, we conducted an in-depth analysis of the 2018 US Midterm elections looking specifically for voter fraud or suppression. The Midterm election occurs in the middle of a 4 year presidential term. For the 2018 midterms, 35 senators and all the 435 seats in the House of Representatives were up for re-election, thus, every congressional district and practically every state had a federal election. In order to collect election related tweets, we analyzed Twitter during the month prior to, and the two weeks following, the November 6, 2018 election day. In a targeted analysis to detect statistical anomalies or election interference, we identified several biases that can lead to wrong conclusions. Specifically, we looked for divergence between actual voting outcomes and instances of the #ivoted hashtag on the election day. This analysis highlighted three states of concern: New York, California, and Texas. We repeated our analysis discarding malicious accounts, such as social bots. Upon further inspection and against a backdrop of collected general election-related tweets, we identified some confounding factors, such as population bias, or bot and political ideology inference, that can lead to false conclusions. We conclude by providing an in-depth discussion of the perils and challenges of using social media data to explore questions about election manipulation
