Abstract
This paper aimed to identify and describe the power of incumbent political symbolism in the simultaneous regional elections of East Seram Regency, Maluku Province. Three candidate pairs followed this election: Alkatiri-Arobi Kelian, Rohani Vanath-Ramli Mahu, and Mukti Keliobas (Incumbent) Idris Rumalutur. Observation results show that the incumbent's political opponent, Rohani Vanath, who is the wife of Abdullah Vanath (former Regent, SBT), is considered to strengthen the politics of political dynasties, where political battles are dominated by coalitions of predatory interests and encourage the marginalization of people's power, as emphasized in Yuki's conceptualization.
