It emphasizes the relevance of legislation in the accomplishment of justice, equity, and the growth of both society and the economy. BAWASLU is responsible for upholding election rules, maintaining transparency, mediating disputes, and working to minimize the influence of money in politics through various monitoring and education activities. In addition, the article discusses the role that the Regency or Municipal BAWASLU should play in preventing election violations and disputes. In spite of societal norms and a general lack of comprehension, BAWASLU fulfills an extremely important function in maintaining the credibility of election results.
