This study explains how elections are carried out in disaster areas and knows what makes the level of voter participation at the time of the disaster actually increase. By using a combination research method and taking a research locus in the area directly affected by the Mount Merapi disaster, namely Sleman Regency. The determination of the research topic was based on two disasters that occurred during the election in Sleman Regency.
The theoretical basis of this research uses the principle of inclusiveness in the democratic system as proposed by Dahl. This research also uses election governance in emergency/disaster areas, where elections held during disasters require special skills to reduce the risks that arise. In addition, the researcher also used political participation and voter behavior to find out the motives that affect the increase in voter participation during elections in disaster areas.
By taking a case study of guaranteeing voting rights and increasing voter turnout in Glagaharjo Village, Sleman Regency during the 2020 elections, researchers found that all residents affected by the disaster can exercise their voting rights in evacuation barracks. Based on the data obtained, the increase in voter participation is caused by the political awareness of the community and simply using their votes to make the election a success. In addition, there is a cultural culture of village apparatus that is highly appreciated by the local community.
This study recommends to election organizers during disasters and maintain voter participation rates by strengthening institutions where they must collaborate with relevant stakeholders. In addition, so that the organizers carry out massive socialization to the lower levels with easy-to-understand models and strategies and provide training for organizers at the lower levels.
