<![CDATA[This study analyzes the influence of noble family victories on voter turnout in the 2018 Bone Regency elections, focusing on how social, economic, cultural, and political factors contribute to determining the outcome of these elections. This study uses a quantitative approach through the distribution of questionnaires to the people of Bone Regency to explore their perceptions of the role of noble families in Pilkada.
