JAKARTA - The Governor of West Java, Ridwan Kamil, is supported by his citizens to become president of the Republic of Indonesia in 2024. This is illustrated by the findings of the latest survey by Saiful Mujani Research and Consulting (SMRC) entitled “Parties, Governors, and the President: West Java Public Views” which was released online.
Ridwan Kamil's survey defeated the three strongest 2024 presidential candidates, namely Prabowo Subianto, Anies Baswedan, and Ganjar Pranowo. Kang Emil, as he is known, is able to compete fiercely in the race for West Java voters' votes for presidential candidates.
"This shows that in top of mind questions or spontaneous answers, Ridwan Kamil gets 13 percent support, Anies Baswedan 12.2 percent, Prabowo Subianto 12 percent, and Ganjar Pranowo 10.7 percent," said SMRC Manager, Saidiman Ahmad, in his presentation. survey, Tuesday, February 15.
While other names are below 3 percent. There are 43.2 percent of West Java residents who have not made a choice.
Saidiman continued that the competition for these four names was consistent in each simulation. In a semi-open question with a list of 29 names, Anies Baswedan received 17 percent support, Prabowo Subianto 16.8 percent, Ridwan Kamil 16.5 percent, and Ganjar Pranowo 14.9 percent.
Meanwhile, other names get support under 4 percent of the vote. There are still 23.1 percent who have not answered. In the simulation of 4 candidates, continued Saidiman, support for Ridwan Kamil rose by 22.2 percent, Prabowo Subianto 21.9 percent, Anies Baswedan 19.3 percent, and Ganjar Pranowo 17.8 percent. Those who did not know or did not answer 18.8 percent. If Ridwan Kamil does not compete, said Saidiman, his votes will be spread fairly evenly among the other three candidates.
"In the simulation of 3 names without Ridwan Kamil, Prabowo received 28.7 percent support, Anies 27 percent, and Ganjar 25.1 percent. There are still 19.2 percent who have not answered," said Saidiman. This survey was conducted by telephone interview on 5-8 February 2022. The total sample collected by trained data collectors reached 801 respondents. The sample was randomly selected from the population of West Java residents aged 17 years and over or married and had a telephone/cellphone.
The data was weighted so that the demographic profile of the sample was proportional to the population resulting from the census. The survey's margin of error is estimated at +/- 3.5 percent at the 95 percent confidence level, assuming simple random sampling.
