JAKARTA - The Indonesian Survey Institute (LSI) released a poll on the electability of candidates for Governor-Deputy Governor of Jakarta which was attended by 3 pairs of candidates.

One of the survey results shows the electability of the prospective independent candidate for Governor of Jakarta, Dharma Pongrekun, at least 3.3 percent compared to his competing governor candidate.

In this survey, Ridwan Kamil obtained 53.9 percent electability and Pramono Anung 20.8 percent.

In fact, Dharma's electability is also still lower than the composition of respondents who stated that they would not exercise their voting rights or golput by 5.2 percent and respondents who did not know or kept the answer a secret of 16.8 percent.

"Dharma lost to golput, yes, goalput 5.2 percent, Dharma is also still inferior to those who don't know or who keep the answer a secret," Djayadi said in a virtual survey presentation, Wednesday, September 18.

Dharma Pongrekun's electability is also the lowest when viewed in the simulation paired with his deputy governor candidate.

The Ridwan Kamil-Suswono pair had 51.8 percent electability, Pramono Anung-Rano Karno 28.4 percent, and Dharma Pongrekun-Kun Wardana 3.2 percent.

Meanwhile, respondents who chose a goal of 3.9 percent and did not know or were confidential at 12.8 percent.

Djayadi explained, if the dynamics of the cagub-cawagub electability does not change, then the RK-Suswono pair can win the Jakarta Pilkada in one round.

"For example, if there is no change in the future, if for example the Pilkada is held the day when we carry out the survey, it means that Ridwan Kamil has crossed the 50 percent limit which is required to be declared the elected governor in Jakarta," he explained.

For information, this survey was conducted in the period 6-12 September with a total sample of 1,200 respondents who are residents of DKI Jakarta aged over 17 years or married.

The withdrawal of respondents was obtained through a multistage random sampling technique with a margin of error of up to 2.9 percent and a confidence level of 95 percent with the assumption of simple random sampling.
