Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo (DOK. ANTARA)

JAKARTA - The electability of Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo skyrocketed in a survey by the Indonesian Survey Institute. The name Ganjar appeared in second place after Prabowo Subianto.

So how did Ganjar's electability in the Central Java Pilkada lead him to the 2024 presidential election?

Political observer Heri Budianto said the development of Ganjar's electability depended on future political contestation. This means that the public and contestants can learn and see in the presidential election. For example, when Jokowi went from Solo to Jakarta and then the presidential election.

"Jakarta is the epicenter of information, two years when Jokowi got the stage and then went up to beat Prabowo, whose survey results for years were the highest," Heri told VOI, Tuesday, February 23.

Meanwhile for Ganjar, PDIP cadres must work even harder to increase their electability on a national scale. Moreover, the governor's term will expire in 2023. Ganjar will lose one year of political stage to increase his electability ahead of the 2024 presidential election.

"For example, Ganjar in Central Java, Central Java has the highest number of voters in Indonesia, but there are West Java and East Java where the number of voters is even greater. This means that Ganjar must start building political networking, it is not enough to win only in Central Java," said Heri. .

According to him, Ganjar must start moving throughout Indonesia if he has the desire to move forward.

"If electability is good, not only in PDIP but other parties will also hook Ganjar," said Heri.
