This study aims to analyze public responses to the appointment of Kaesang Pangarep as the Chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) using a sentiment classification approach based on the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) algorithm. The primary dataset consists of 300 Indonesian-language tweets categorized into three sentiment classes: positive, negative, and neutral. The limited size of the training data presents a major challenge, as it can hinder the model's ability to generalize. To address this issue, data augmentation was carried out by incorporating external datasets with Covid-19 and Open Topic themes. The preprocessing stages include text cleaning, normalization, and tokenization. The developed CNN model utilizes a layered architecture and applies regularization techniques such as L2 and dropout to reduce the risk of overfitting. Accuracy, F1-score, precision, and recall were used as performance evaluation metrics. Experimental results show that the best performance was achieved when the Kaesang and Covid-19 datasets were combined, yielding an F1-score of 0.62 on the validation set and 0.51 on the test set. These findings indicate that adding external data can improve classification accuracy, even under limited data conditions. This study contributes to the development of deep learning-based sentiment classification methods for Indonesian-language texts.
