JAKARTA - The Indonesian Political Indicators Survey released the results of the latest survey regarding the presidential candidate (candidate) chosen by the public in 2024. In a survey conducted on 9-16 February 2023, it involved 1,220 respondents from all provinces in Indonesia.

Executive Director of Indonesian Political Indicators Burhanuddin Muhtadi revealed that the majority of PDI-P voters want Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo as a presidential candidate in 2024.

Of the 23.5 percent electability of PDI-P voters, 61 percent chose Ganjar as the 2024 presidential candidate. "Most of the PDIP base wants Ganjar to become a presidential candidate," said Burhanuddin in his presentation virtually.

However, only 2.6 percent of the PDI-P base chose the chairman of the PDI-P DPP and the chairman of the DPR, Puan Maharani, to become a presidential candidate. Prabowo Subianto chose 13.5 percent more.

In addition to the PDI-P base, Ganjar Pranowo was also widely chosen by the Perindo Party base as much as 62.5 percent, PPP base as much as 38.1 percent, and PKB base as much as 33.9 percent.

"Ganjar dominant from the PDI-P base, Perindo, PPP, is approximately balanced with Prabowo on the PKB basis and excels in groups that are satisfied with the performance of President Joko Widodo," said Burhanuddin.

Meanwhile, Prabowo Subianto himself is strong on the Gerindra base as much as 53.6 percent and the PKB base as much as 35.4 percent. Meanwhile, Anies Baswedan is strong at PAN base as much as 61.4 percent, followed by Nasdem as much as 53.7 percent, PKS 48.4 percent, Golkar 38.1 percent, and Democrats 23.0 percent.

"Prabowo is dominant in Gerindra's base, and Anies is based on NasDem, PKS, PAN, Democrats and a base that is less/unsatisfied with the performance of President Joko Widodo," added Burhanuddin.

The Indonesian Political Indicators Survey was conducted using a simple random sampling method, with a fault tolerance of around 2.9 percent at a 95 percent confidence level.

Sebagai informasi tambahan, dalam survei yang sama, Ganjar Pranowo juga mendapatkan elektabilitas tertinggi di antara tiga nama yang disodorkan kepada responden.
