Politics is dynamic, sometimes it makes us nervous, anxious, excited, and it can make us angry. It depends on the spiritual situation of each citizen. Free to politically, strategically, or educate as well as educated. It depends on how we follow the politics. As beautiful as the word politics is, it always brings us to an uncertain atmosphere. This is what we will describe from the pieces of the story that stick together.

In the beginning, it took courage to express opinions, both written and oral. Even so, the constitution provides space for freedom of expression in public. Still, as a village student, delivering criticism to elites and political parties is not an easy thing. It takes courage that has been prepared for years. Until such time, every word is read by the reader. Whether in newspapers or online media.

This voice is the voice of observers who challenge local democracy from writing. Procedural local democracy has not improved itself sufficiently. Perhaps, indeed, elite power and central pressure have forced local democracy to give up. At the crucial moment, even local democracy seeded various prohibitions. The team's moves to win the pair of candidates can overwhelm us. Indeed, Indonesian political contestants are always able to play a role.

From the village boy's observation, politicians and political parties are one unit that needs healthy criticism. If possible, sharp criticism is like plunging into the soul. So that readers understand that every sound has a meaning. Likewise, writings that come from a collection of opinions are scattered in various online and print media.

As far as the author is concerned, political parties are still acting up. As long as the leadership is happy, then the recruitment of regional executive cakons can be democratized. Political costs? Dunk candidate thought. Moreover, the matter of breaking the rules, making mistakes becomes justification. Sometimes, the campaign style is so-so, even boring. Yet that is local politics.

From the village children's musings, several short writings were born. Then collected into a book that the reader is holding. Indeed, the title "suing local democratic politics" is not fully represented. However, criticism continues from local in the area to local in Jakarta. Hopefully this record will become material to reap the enthusiasm of other village youths. So that all youth are active and critical verbally and in writing.

The author thanks Padang Ekspres, Haluan and Singgalang. Three local newspapers in West Sumatra that provide space for writers to express themselves. Also convey this simple view. The author is also happy with the permission to "ride" writing at the Election House, Qureta, Selasar and Kompasiana.

Thank you to seniors of the Indonesian Legal Aid and Human Rights Association (PBHI), the Independent Election Monitoring Committee (KIPP) Indonesia, and the Islamic Student Association (HMI). Three organizations that succeeded in giving hope to the children of this village. An opportunity for writers to feel human and valued as a living being.

Thank you also to the writing supervisors at the beginning of writing, bang Samaratul Fuad, bang Khairul Fahmi, bang Firdaus, Bang Muhammad Fauzan Azim, bang Harry Efendi Iskandar, bang Ronny P Sasmita, bang Mochammad Afifuddin, bang Muchtar Sindang, also some seniors which is not enough it feels like thousands of sheets contain the names that contributed to the author.
