JAKARTA - The Indonesian Survey Center Institute said voters of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) will vote for Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo rather than Defense Minister, Prabowo Subianto, in the 2024 presidential election.

"Here, the voters of President Jokowi in 2019, it turned out to give Ganjar Pranowo a choice of 15.9 percent. This is the largest of the other candidates", said Senior Researcher of the Indonesia Survey Center, Chairul Ansari, when explaining the results of his survey which was broadcast online, Sunday, November 14th.

In addition to Ganjar, the survey results also reveal that 12.5 percent of the votes for Jokowi will be received by former DKI Jakarta Governor, Basuki Tjahja Purnama alias Ahok, and the other 11.1 percent will be accepted by the Chairman of the Indonesian House of Representatives, Puan Maharani.

"Meanwhile, Prabowo Subianto has 10.9 percent and Anies Baswedan (Governor of DKI Jakarta) has 6.9 percent", he said.

The reason Jokowi voters began to glance at Prabowo was that he was a statesman and accepted a request to sit as a minister in the Advanced Indonesia Cabinet. "Prabowo's attitude of putting aside political rivalry and diluting political bipolarity in 2014 and 2019 has received appreciation from Jokowi's supporters, who are starting to fall in love", explained Chairul.

"Prabowo's democratic stance deserves the support of Jokowi's supporters", he added.

Not only that name, but Jokowi's supporters will also split into several other names such as West Java Governor, Ridwan Kamil, Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy, Sandiaga Uno, Minister of Social Affairs, Tri Rismaharini, and Chairman of the Democratic Party, Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono.

In addition, this vote will also be received by Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal, and Security Affairs Mahfud MD, Coordinating Minister for the Economy Airlangga Hartarto, Presidential Chief of Staff, Moeldoko, East Java Governor, Khohifah Indah Prawansa, and SOE Minister, Erick Thohir. However, Chairul said that the vote for Jokowi's supporters against these figures was below 5 percent.

Even so, all of these figures can still get more votes for Jokowi's supporters. The reason is that this survey noted that there was 19.3 percent of undecided voters.

"So there is still 19.3 percent of Jokowi's voters who have not made a choice", he said.

The Indonesian Institute for Survey Center conducted data collection from October 7-21 by involving 1,520 respondents with the criteria of being 17 years and over or having been married. Meanwhile, the margin of error for this survey is 2.5 percent and the technique used is multistage random sampling.
