The national budget is a national agenda and functions as a catalyst in fulfilling the aims of national development. The national budget is also a practice of the executive institution in the manifestation of government power that is legitimately elected in a democratic system. Thus, the focus of this study is on the implications of the budget presentation to junior voters’ voting pattern. The argument of this research is based on the model of Authoritative Value Allocation suggested by David Easton. The design of this study is based on a quantitative research design using the survey method. A total of 384 respondents were selected in this study with the purposive sampling technique and the number of the sample was determined by Krejie and Morgan’s sample determination table. The findings of the study found that all levels of items in the model include; the surrounding environment, inputs, outputs, and feedback, help answer the research question. The evidence for the findings has been analyzed descriptively using percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The findings of the study conclude that the budget did bring significant implications on the junior voters’ choice of political party in an election.
