Expert: The Power Of Islamic Organizations Becomes A Rebuttal Of The Position Of Vice President In The 2024 Presidential Election

Surabaya University Political Communication Expert, Dr. Suko Widodo, said that the strength of Islamic organizations is currently being contested for the position of vice presidential candidate (cawapres).

"Religious organizations and Islamic-based political parties are a means of communication for the vice presidential candidate. Call it Cak Imin (Muhaimin Iskandar), Sandiaga Uno, and Erick Thohir," said Suko in Surabaya, Monday, April 24. Suko said the new landscape had been formed after PDI-P General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri announced the presidential candidate from the ruling party, namely Ganjar Pranowo. Even Nasdem also needs to think about it. If PKS and the Democratic Party have been given their conditions," added Suko Widodo.

"Islam-based organizations will mainly become a fight. To the extent that Erick Thohir is close to NU and instead becomes Banser, Sandiaga Uno moves to PPP (even without obstacles)," he said.
