Mahfud MD Claims Uneasy Despite The Electability Survey With Ganjar Declining Overtaken By Anies-Cak Imin

JAKARTA - Candidate for vice president number 3 Mahfud MD admitted that he was not worried about the results of the electability survey of the current presidential / vice presidential candidates.

"I'm not worried, I'm not worried at all. I just saw how restless people are. I don't think so. Look at it later," Mahfud said after a pilgrimage to Bung Hatta's grave at Tanah Kusir Public Cemetery, Jakarta, reported by ANTARA, Tuesday, January 2.

He said the real victory of the presidential/cawapres candidate pair would be proven on voting day for the 2024 presidential election, namely February 14, 2024. According to him, the results of the current survey are only all.

"The proof is that the people's court is actually on February 14, all of them are silent now, silent," he said.

In addition, Mahfud emphasized that he and Ganjar Pranowo had never thought about the survey results. Because, he reflected on the 2018 presidential election where all surveys projected Jokowi-Ma'ruf Amin to lose.

In fact, the survey results stated that Jokowi-Ma'ruf's electability tended to stagnate and began to complete. However, these results are inversely proportional to where Jokowi-Ma'ruf managed to beat Prabowo Subianto-Sandiaga Uno.

"In 2019, all surveys were wrong, the survey will be wrong if the answer is wrong, 'That's the portrait of the day, today is another', that's the answer," said Mahfud.

Therefore, he does not trust the results of the current presidential/cawapres survey. "I have never been bound by a survey," he added.

To note, Ganjar Pranowo-Mahfud MD is recorded to be in third place in various recent survey results. Ganjar-Mahfud's electability appears to be competing with Anies Baswedan-Muhaimin Iskandar's electability or Cak Imin (AMIN) in second and third positions.

Meanwhile, at the top, Prabowo Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka was occupied in accordance with the results of a survey released by LSI Dennya JA, Polling Institute, CSIS, and Political Indicators.
