Welcoming the 2024 elections, social media has become a new battlefield for discussion on the issue of postponing the elections. Its issue is echoed by accounts that reject the plan to postpone the elections. This research used a critical approach to the role of Twitter social media in shaping a social movement with the hashtag of #tundapemilu. Twitter users typically connect their tweets to specific topics with hashtags, giving other users a voice to follow these topics and take part in public discussions. The results showed that the hashtag movement of #tundapemilu on Twitter social media is one of the social movements that aims to convey criticisms and complaints felt by all Indonesian people to the government, with the hope that the government can make decisions quickly and precisely on the problems experienced by Indonesian people nowadays. Twitter social media can be used as a tool for the formation of a social movement and also faster in presenting information about government. Thus, it can spread public opinion and form such opinions.
