JAKARTA - West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil is one of the figures who have the potential to run in the 2024 Presidential Election. This is based on the results of a survey published by CigMark.
Based on the latest survey conducted on June 9-17, Ridwan Kamil, who is usually called Kang Emil, is included in the ranks of names that have the potential to become presidential and vice presidential candidates.
Founder of CiGMark Setia Darma even said that Ridwan Kamil has now entered the ranks of candidates with high electability reaching 80.1 percent.
In fact, his electability only lost to Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto whose electability reached 95.8 percent; DKI Jakarta Governor Anies with an electability of 83.7 percent; and Sandiaga Uno whose electability reached 83.2 percent.
"Meanwhile, under RK, there are other big names such as Ganjar Pranowo, Puan Maharani, and Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY)," said Setia Darma when releasing his survey results today, Tuesday, July 5.
In addition to sampling electability, CiGMark also measures the level of public preference for 18 figures. "As a result, RK is the most prominent with a liking rate of 84.1 percent," said Setia.
As for the top of mind presidential election, continued Setia, if the presidential election were to be held at this time, five names would appear. Apart from Ridwan Kamil, there are other names, namely Joko Widodo (4.7 percent), Anies Baswedan (9.5 percent), Prabowo Subianto (11.7 percent), and Ganjar Pranowo (14.1 percent).
Not only that, RK also entered the top four when CiGMark conducted a survey related to the support mass base reaching 5.2 percent.
"Of the 18 names of existing figures, Ganjar Pranowo, Prabowo Subianto, Anies Baswedan, and Ridwan Kamil who seem to have a strong supporter base," said Darma.
Meanwhile, Senior Researcher at the Center of Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) Philips J. Vermonte saw the consistency of support for RK in the CiGMark survey. According to him, this is interesting because so far there are only three names that have been rumored to be running in the 2024 presidential election, namely Prabowo Subianto, Ganjar Pranowo, and Anies Baswedan.
He also said that people's preference for RK was also due to him not having a party. "There is no party machine that increases his (Ridwan Kamil, ed) electability, it's organic. What CiGMark found is a genuine preference (against Ridwan Kamil, ed) from the community," he explained.
As for this survey, CiGMark uses a multistage random sampling methodology and is followed by 1,200 respondents. The margin of error reached 2.83 percent.
