JAKARTA The Gerindra Party and Dedi Mulyadi are said to be the parties who will benefit the most in the West Java gubernatorial election if Ridwan Kamil or RK are pushed forward in the Jakarta Pilkada.
"If you look at the final map, the one who benefits from Gerindra. Because from the results of the survey, Kang Emil is a strong challenger, it's Dedi Mulyadi. If Kang Emil does not advance in West Java, Dedi Mulyadi's potential to become governor is greater," said Unpad political observer Firman Manan, Sunday, June 30, 2024.
Although Dedi is relatively superior when RK shifts to Jakarta, he assesses that the competition map in the West Java Pilgub will be more evenly distributed. This is because Dedi's electability distance with other candidates is not as wide as if RK continues to run in the West Java gubernatorial election.
"This means that many figures can fight compared to Kang Emil running in West Java. Kang Emil is significantly superior even with Dedi Mulyadi," he added.
According to Firman, the certainty in which RK will compete depends on the Golkar Party's decision. Regarding advancing in Jakarta or West Java, Firman said the key is in Golkar. He saw that internally the Golkar Party wanted RK to continue in the West Java gubernatorial election. Unfortunately, Golkar has not been able to decide independently because there are factors in the Forward Indonesia Coalition and Prabowo Subianto's figure.

For the Golkar Party, the advancement of RK in the Jakarta Pilkada will be more detrimental to the party. In addition to the greater chance of victory in the West Java gubernatorial election, the province is also the area with the highest number of voters. This is also talking about opportunities, talking about victory is certainly more potential in West Java because Kang Emil has advanced for the second time, the level of electability and public satisfaction is high," he said.
Firman also revealed that RK's figure is a politician who is very calculated in reading opportunities. Therefore, he suspects that RK is more inclined to choose to compete in the West Java Pilgub than the Jakarta Pilkada.
"To my knowledge, Kang Emil is a very calculative person who calculates opportunities, and if you look at them per day, this is a great opportunity to advance in West Java. I imagine that Kang Emil is a calculative politician if he is allowed to vote, vote in West Java," he said.
