Abstract

This study aims to analyse the effect of follow-up of audit recommendations and local government financial performance on incumbent electability. Using a quantitative approach and secondary data from local elections in Indonesia in 2017, 2018, and 2020, this study involved a final sample of 428 observations consisting of 26 governor elections, 76 mayor elections, and 326 regent elections. The results show that the main variables analysed, namely follow-up to audit recommendations and financial performance, play a role in increasing the electability of incumbents. Good local government financial management, especially those related to accountability and sustainability of local finances, was shown to affect the level of electability of incumbents. This study has important implications for local government awareness of the role of audit practices and government financial management in increasing public trust and satisfaction. The findings emphasize the importance of implementing good financial governance and accountability as one of the factors that can support increased political support for incumbents in general elections. Keywords: Incumbent Electability, Follow-up of Audit Recommendations, Financial Performance, Financial Independence.
