However, there are various kinds of problems in Election supervision in Indonesia, including manipulation of nominating requirements, in-validity of voter data, money politics in campaigns, abuse of authority and intervention of power structures, as well as inflation of voting results as a common phenomenon in almost every electoral exercise, which involving election organizers, election participants and / or the community as voters. Thus, with the existence of election supervisors in political and administrative law reviews, it is important to avoid the delegitimation of the election process and results, as well as anticipating the development of various election violations, in order to strengthen public trust in various electoral system problems. The existence of strong Election Supervisors is inseparable from the importance of oversight mechanisms for the realization of quality elections.
