This study aims to analyze the influence of the Aceh Party on Azhari Cage's victory in the 2024 Simultaneous General Election as a member of the Regional Representative Council of the Republic of Indonesia (DPD RI). Using a qualitative approach through interviews and documentation techniques, the study found that although Azhari Cage ran as an independent candidate, informal support from the Aceh Party played a significant role in his success. This support was manifested through a strong political network and Azhari’s historical and emotional legitimacy as a former combatant of the Free Aceh Movement (GAM). The campaign strategy, which combined a narrative of political struggle and a personal approach, succeeded in building public trust. The study concludes that synergy between the personal strength of a candidate and the local political infrastructure can be a key formula for success in political contests, especially in regions with a background of conflict and strong political identity such as Aceh.
