  • This study has several limitations that should be acknowledged. First, the research relied entirely on secondary data derived from academic literature, institutional reports, and political analyses without direct field observation or interviews with political actors and voters. Consequently, the findings primarily reflect interpretative analysis rather than empirical behavioral measurement. Second, the study focused mainly on national electoral dynamics within the post-reform Indonesian context, which may limit broader comparative generalization across different political systems or regional elections. In addition, the rapid development of digital political communication may continuously reshape electoral behavior in ways that are difficult to fully capture within a literature-based study. Therefore, the conclusions presented in this research should be interpreted within the contextual boundaries of qualitative political analysis.
