Political Marketing and Identity Politics: Implications for Voter Engagement and Interest

This study examines the impact of identity-based political marketing on voter interest in Tasikmalaya City for the 2024 Legislative Elections. Using a quantitative research design with a survey approach, data were collected through questionnaires distributed to a randomly selected sample from the city's official voter list. Multiple linear regression analysis was employed to assess the relationship between identity-based political marketing strategies (independent variables) and voter interest (dependent variable). The findings indicate that identity-based political marketing strategies—which include ethnic, religious, and cultural factors—significantly influence voter interest. This underscores the critical role of identity politics in shaping voter preferences in Tasikmalaya City. These results suggest that political parties and legislative candidates should tailor their campaign strategies to align with the local voter identity dynamics. Understanding the complexity of identity politics is essential for political actors to formulate effective and relevant campaign strategies. A deep understanding of how identity factors influence voter engagement can enhance voter participation and promote a more inclusive and representative democratic process. This research provides valuable insights into how identity politics can be strategically leveraged to influence election outcomes.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of identity-based political marketing on voter interest in Tasikmalaya City for the 2024 Legislative Elections. Using a quantitative research design with a survey approach, data were collected through questionnaires distributed to a randomly selected sample from the city's official voter list. Multiple linear regression analysis was employed to assess the relationship between identity-based political marketing strategies (independent variables) and voter interest (dependent variable). The findings indicate that identity-based political marketing strategies—which include ethnic, religious, and cultural factors—significantly influence voter interest. This underscores the critical role of identity politics in shaping voter preferences in Tasikmalaya City. These results suggest that political parties and legislative candidates should tailor their campaign strategies to align with the local voter identity dynamics. Understanding the complexity of identity politics is essential for political actors to formulate effective and relevant campaign strategies. A deep understanding of how identity factors influence voter engagement can enhance voter participation and promote a more inclusive and representative democratic process. This research provides valuable insights into how identity politics can be strategically leveraged to influence election outcomes.
