"Despite the issue of voter migration who is disappointed with Prabowo joining the Jokowi government, it seems that Prabowo's electability is still quite high," said Landscape Executive Director, Mochammad Thoha in Jakarta, Tuesday, November 30.

Landscape also asked questions about the simulation of the presidential and vice presidential candidates. The simulation results show a high level of electability for the pair in which Prabowo is the presidential candidate.

The highest Prabowo-Puan pair got 67.7 percent of the gains compared to 63.6 percent of Prabowo-Anies, 62.0 percent of Prabowo-Ganjar and 58.7 percent of Prabowo-Sandi.

"However, if it is reversed where Prabowo as the vice presidential candidate, the percentage of electability is much lower, but it is still the main choice in all simulations that place Prabowo as the vice presidential candidate. There is only a small percentage of the public choosing Prabowo for the vice presidential position and that there is a large proportion of the public choosing Prabowo as the presidential candidate," he explained. Thoha.

Responding to this, the Secretary General of the Gerindra Party, Ahmad Muzani, welcomed the survey results which stated that the level of electability of the duo of Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto and DPR Speaker Puan Maharani was the strongest in the upcoming 2024 election.

This, added Muzani, is to predict all possibilities in order to produce the right decision. "To be precise, surveys are one indicator or one way. There are many survey institutions, not just one, something like that," said Muzani.

So will the Prabowo-Puan duo materialize?

Observer of Indonesian Political Parameters, Adi Prayitno, assessed that the Gerindra Party's move, which is still looking at a number of surveys related to the possible pair of Prabowo Subianto-Puan Maharani in the 2024 presidential election, indicates that this pairing is not certain to happen.

"It seems that Gerindra will look at the political dynamics in the future. One of the parameters is the findings of the political survey which can be used as a reference. This means that the Prabowo-Puan pair cannot be locked from now on, because there are still considerations of survey dynamics. There are still other possibilities that could change," he said. Adi Prayitno, Wednesday, December 1.

According to him, Gerindra has read the possibilities if Prabowo is paired with Puan Maharani. He said that Gerindra may believe that the Prabowo-Puan pair can lose if they fight against popular names. win when faced with unpopular names but push themselves forward. Herein lies the importance of surveys in looking ahead. Therefore, whether or not Prabowo-Puan advances really depends on who the opponent will be facing, "he said. However, Adi said Gerindra was not doubts the Prabowo-Puan candidate pair. However, according to him, Gerindra is aware that there are still many other, stronger pairs to pair up, such as Ganjar Pranowo and Sandiaga. Prabowo-Puan has changed, for example, PDIP-Gerindra advances Ganjar-Sandi. This option is still open for a dynamic political movement. But on the other hand, if Prabowo-Puan's opponent is weak, this duet is likely to materialize. Therefore, the Prabowo-Puan duo cannot be locked at this time because However, Adi said that with the current conditions, it is almost certain that Gerindra will form a coalition with PDIP in 2024. Currently, the two parties are just looking for the right partner. "If you look at the current trend, it is almost certain that PDIP-Gerindra will form a coalition. It's like people going out, these two parties are compatible with each other. To make Muzani issue a statement, we need to look at the results of many surveys," he concluded.
