To test the hypothesis in a statistical test used in this study is the Product Moment Correlation Analysis. Where statistical test is used to look for correlations between variables that exist.

At p = 0.05, for N = 100, N = 100 critical value, 0.195. Therefore the value of r_xy = 0.252> 0.195 of the critical r p = 0.05, then for r_xy = 0.520 is significant. At p = 0.01 for N = 100 is equal to 0.254. therefore the values of r xy = 0.252 <0.254 of the critical r p = 0.01, then for r_xy = 0.520 is not significant. The meaning of the value of the relationship between Social Support Level Group with voter behavior but weak correlation, because r count> r table at p = 0.05 but at p = 0.01 r count> r table, then the hypothesis that the higher the level of Support Social Groups at particular candidate, the higher the voter support for the prospective head region in the elections of 2015 Sukoharjo acceptable.
