This research examines how the political behaviour of NU citizens in the 2024 Presidential and Vice Presidential Elections. This research uses qualitative research methods, the use of this method will obtain data in the form of literature data, descriptions of speech, writing, and emphasis on subjective aspects that can be observed from the people (subjects) themselves. From the results of the study, it is concluded that the 2024 presidential and vice presidential elections have shaped the political behaviour of NU citizens with different preferences. So that when viewed from their political behaviour, NU citizens can be grouped into, first, groups of NU citizens who choose presidential and vice presidential candidate pairs based on the choice of following the direction or choice of the PBNU structural elite because of their loyalty to the organisation. Second, because they follow the preferences of their kyai, ulama, and teacher role models on the grounds that santri must be sami'na wa ato'na to their teacher's orders. Third, choosing for rational reasons based on personal idealism. Fourth, due to the difference in political ijtihad between Gus Muhaimin Iskandar as Chairman of PKB and the structural elites of PBNU, he chose to make cultural movements as a medium for his political struggle. Fifth, for pragmatic reasons for the benefit of themselves and their groups.
