JAKARTA - The Indonesian Survey Institute (LSI) released the results of a survey of presidential candidates in the 2024 presidential election. As a result, some of Jokowi's voters moved to Ganjar Pranowo.

It is known that Ganjar Pranowo himself is a cadre of the PDP party. Is PDIP willing to carry Ganjar in the 2024 presidential election?

Political observer Heri Budianto sees three potential names as candidates for the presidential election within the PDIP. Namely, Ganjar Pranowo, Tri Rismaharini, and Puan Maharani.

"So, there are Ganjar, Risma, and Puan Maharani. These three have a chance. Or, PDIP could internally see these three that will be discussed internally", said Heri to VOI, Tuesday, February 23.

However, according to Heri, whoever the candidate is recommended internally, the decision still depends on the chairman. Moreover, the survey results can still change until before the general election.

"But it is all Megawati's decision. Of course, I think the political situation moves from time to time. Even at the last minute will finally become the survey results which also determine who is the biggest for these three figures", Heri explained.

As for figures, Heri considered that there was still a possibility that the PDIP would nominate other candidates outside of the cadres. This of course returns to Megawati's authority.

"The rest, there are close people who are included in the survey market but do not necessarily get the ticket from PDIP. For example, Budi Gunawan is on the survey radar but not necessarily. Moreover, there is a case with Democrats. I think there is a desire to go forward, right? You don't have a party, maybe that is one of the figures you are targeting", said Heri.

Meanwhile, the Chairperson of the PDIP DPP Hendrawan Supratikno emphasized that in the matter of nominating the presidential election, his party fully submitted to the decision of the general chairman. Including the question of Ganjar.

"The authority is in the hands of the chairman, that's the decision of the Congress. So we wait patiently. As usual in politics, candidate pairs appear at the last hour before the deadline", Hendrawan told VOI, Tuesday, February 23.

According to him, the elected candidates are certainly under careful consideration. He also invited the presidential election prospective candidates to 'market' themselves to the public.

"The last one will have the advantage because they have read what the other prospective candidates have done", said Hendrawan.
