The methodology used is a quantitative approach using purposive sampling techniques, involving 60 respondents as a sample. Data was collected through a Likert scale-based questionnaire to measure respondents' perceptions of the variables studied. Data analysis was carried out using SPSS software, by testing validity, reliability, normality, heteroscedasticity, and applying multiple regression analysis, F test, and T test. The implications of these findings provide strategic insights for the Independent Indonesia Farmers organization to improve the effectiveness of election campaign teams by strengthening effective leadership practices, increasing active involvement of team members in every stage of the campaign, and promoting collaborative synergy among team members to optimally achieve common goals. This research makes an important contribution in the context of election campaign management at the organizational level, by highlighting the importance of internal factors such as leadership and teamwork in achieving expected performance. The next step could involve developing more specific strategies and training programs to reinforce aspects that have been identified as key to success in the context of an election campaign.
