This study aims to analyze the implementation of the duties of the Kupang City Election Supervisory Agency in supervising the 2024–2029 Kupang City Member General Election and identify factors that inhibit the effectiveness of supervision. The study uses an empirical legal approach with socio-legal and conceptual methods. Data were collected through interviews with the Chairperson and members of General Election Supervisory Body, legislative candidates, literature studies, and field documentation in Kota Raja District. The results of the study show that Bawaslu has been active and collaborative in supervision, through the formation of working groups, cross-institutional cooperation, and direct and administrative supervision methods.
