<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the aspects of political education and their influence on the fulfillment of citizens’ rights in elections at Anugerah Kasih Abadi Orphanage, located in Percut Sei Tuan District, Deli Serdang Regency. Political education serves as an important means of fostering citizens’ awareness, participation, and capacity to exercise their political rights, including the right to vote in elections. This research employed a descriptive qualitative method. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews with the orphanage residents, and documentation related to political education activities. The findings indicate that aspects of political education—such as understanding political rights, participation in election simulations, and the provision of information regarding electoral mechanisms—have a significant influence on the residents’ awareness and readiness to participate in democratic processes. Residents who regularly receive political education demonstrate a better understanding of their rights, are able to critically evaluate political candidates and programs, and show greater motivation to participate in elections. In conclusion, effective political education within the orphanage environment can enhance the fulfillment of citizens’ rights, particularly in the context of electoral participation, thereby fostering a politically aware and democratic younger generation. This study recommends strengthening sustainable political education programs in orphanages as part of the development of active and responsible citizens.]]>
