JAKARTA - The NasDem Party seems to have closed the door for the General Chairperson (Ketum) of the Gerindra Party, Prabowo Subianto, to be promoted as a presidential candidate. The reason is that Prabowo's name was not recommended by the NasDem DPP as a candidate for president proposed by the DPW at the internal meeting of the National Working Meeting last night.
The chairman of the NasDem DPP, Willy Aditya, said the names of the three presidential candidates recommended by the DPW would be proposed to the General Chair of NasDem, Surya Paloh. However, no Prabowo name was proposed.
"The names mentioned by DPW yesterday are the ones that exist," Willy told reporters at the NasDem National Working Meeting at the JCC, Central Jakarta, Friday, June 17.
Willy emphasized that there would be no names of figures who suddenly appeared as the proposal of the NasDem DPP. Because he said, there are no new candidates other than the recommendations of the NasDem DPW which will be announced later.
"There is no absolute name bimsalabim abracadabra, then there is a new name, no," said Willy.
It is known that as many as 34 Regional Leadership Councils (DPW) of the NasDem Party proposed the names of presidential candidates in the NasDem National Working Meeting at JCC Senayan, South Jakarta on Thursday, June 16.
The majority proposed the names of DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan and Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo. In addition to the two names, SOE Minister Erick Thohir and TNI Commander General Andika Perkasa were the most mentioned.
Of the 34 DPWs present, the name Anies was proposed by 31 DPWs. The vote for Ganjar is also only slightly different from Anies, which is 29 DPW. Meanwhile, Erick's name was proposed to be more than 15 DPW and Andika more than 10 DPW.
In addition to these four names, the names of the candidates for president proposed by the regions that are widely mentioned are the Governor of West Java, Ridwan Kamil, and the Governor of East Java, Khofifah Indar Parawansa.
Meanwhile, the internal NasDem cadres who have been mentioned include the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rachmat Gobel, the Deputy Chair of the MPR Lestari Moeridjat, to the Minister of Agriculture Syahrul Yasin Limpo.
