PERGESERAN PERILAKU MEMILIH PADA PEMILIH PEMULA DALAM PEMILU 2019

Abstract

First-time voters have voting preferences that are not dependent on ideological values but are more likely to be influenced by everyday issues such as traffic congestion in big cities, job availability, quality education, availability of basic necessities, and public services. The reality of young people reveals that they consume social media more as an initial description of their voting behavior preferences. This pattern evolves over time because, fundamentally, first-time voters are adaptive to the dynamics of issues and periods. In the 2014 election, first-time voters were confronted with narratives of pragmatism, populism, and oligarchy. Now, in 2019, they face narratives of identity conservatism and national pluralism.
