N2 - The occurrence of democratic elections is contingent upon the presence of election organizers who possess integrity. The effectiveness of the General Election Commission (KPU) and the Election Supervisory Body (BAWASLU) in their role as election organizers can be evaluated based on the prevalence of fraudulent activities and violations perpetrated by participants in the electoral process. Nevertheless, the paramount aspect is in the adherence to ethical values exhibited by the constituents of the KPU and BAWASLU during the execution of their responsibilities. This article aims to examine the correlation between the decision made by the Election Organizer Honor Council (DKPP) and the frequency of ethical transgressions performed by the Election Commission (KPU) and the Election Supervisory Body (BAWASLU). Has the decision made by the DKPP (Election Supervisory Agency) resulted in a favorable influence on the organizational aspects of elections? The decline in the frequency of ethical transgressions perpetrated by the KPU and BAWASLU is evident. In addition, the author conducts an analysis of the influence exerted by the ethical enforcement procedure on the successful implementation of elections characterized by integrity. The correlation between the implementation of democratic elections and the ability of KPU and BAWASLU to uphold the code of ethics is noteworthy. The author’s conclusion posits that the effectiveness of the democratic process in Indonesia hinges upon three key components: DKPP decisions, ethical infractions, and elections conducted with integrity. The present analysis is conducted through an examination of the decisions rendered by DKPP, alongside the ethical transgressions perpetrated by KPU and BAWASLU, which are evaluated within the framework of ethics and democracy.
