JAKARTA - The Charta Politica Survey Institute released the results of a survey related to the electability of figures who will become presidential candidates for the 2024 presidential election. As a result, Ganjar Pranowo was in the top position even though Anies Baswedan had been declared a presidential candidate by the NasDem Party.

In a simulation of 10 names, the Executive Director of Charta Politica Indonesia Yunarwo Wijaya explained that Ganjar's electability reached 32.6 percent.

The governor of Central Java for two terms was in a landslide ahead of Anies Baswedan, who only pocketed 23.1 percent electability. Meanwhile, Prabowo is in third place with 22 percent.

"Ganjar Pranowo is the highest choice for the public, both as the best known figure, most liked and a figure who is elected as a presidential candidate. Following the next order is occupied by Anies Baswedan and Prabowo Subianto," Yunarto said at a press conference on the results of a survey themed 'Public Perceptions Regarding Government Performance and the Latest Electoral Map', Tuesday 29 November.

Yunarto explained that Ridwan Kamil took the fourth position with an electability of 5.6 percent. Then there is Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono at 3.5 percent; Sandiaga Uno at 2 percent, Khofifah Indar Parawansa and Puan Maharani at 1.6 percent; Airlangga Hartarto at 1.5 percent, and Erick Thohir at 1.4 percent.

The respondents who did not answer or did not know who the figure who was elected president if held now was 5 percent.

In the simulation of three names, Yunarto said that Ganjar was again in the top position with an electability of 37.4 percent. Then followed by Anies by 29.3 percent and Prabowo by 25.3 percent.

Respondents who have not answered or do not know are 8 percent.

"In the simulation of 3 names, Ganjar Pranowo got the highest electability," he said.

On the other hand, Yunarto said Ganjar's electability trend has continued to increase significantly since the end of 2021. Meanwhile, Anies seemed stagnant even though he rose after being declared a presidential candidate by NasDem in September 2022.

Meanwhile, Prabowo is the opposite of Anies. His electability decreased when compared to September 2022.
