Responding to this, Pramono Anung admitted that the depletion of the difference in electability made his party more optimistic that they could win the Jakarta Pilkada 1 round with votes above 50 percent.

Meanwhile, Rano Karno said that he had monitored his electability with Pramono, experiencing an upward trend. For this reason, the one-round regional elections are expected so that the Governors of Jakarta can be sworn in more quickly and work immediately.
