Survey In Jakarta's Pilkada Down, Ridwan Kamil: No Need To Talk About Electability

Former Governor of West Java Ridwan Kamil (ANTARA)

JAKARTA - Golkar Party politician Ridwan Kamil asked not to measure fate based on the results of the survey circulating. This was conveyed by Ridwan Kamil at the Golkar Party DPP office, Wednesday night, following his declining electability in the 2024 DKI Jakarta Pilkada exchange.

He also said that he had received 6 percent electability two months before the 2013 Bandung City Pilkada. However, his electability skyrocketed again until he finally came out victorious.

"The name is electability is up and down, right. In the past, when the Mayor of Bandung was H-2 months, I only had 6 percent. On D-days (so) 45 percent. So, I can't measure fate with today's survey," said Ridwan Kamil as reported by ANTARA.

The former Governor of West Java also said that someone who has high electability at this time will not necessarily win the election contestation, and vice versa.

"Today high is not necessarily a win, today low is not necessarily a loss. The point now is not to talk too much about electability," he said.

Moreover, continued Ridwan Kamil, the contest for voters in the West Java and DKI Jakarta Pilkada has not yet started.

"What is being done now is calculating the coalition, so the calculation is still calculated specifically for West Java and DKI has not been decided, because it is still lobbying," explained Ridwan Kamil.

Therefore, he will continue to strive to increase his electability in DKI Jakarta. "His name must be carried out, that is the duty of humans. God's destiny, yes later in the D-days," he concluded.
