JAKARTA - The Indometer survey shows that Ganjar Pranowo, Prabowo Subianto and Ridwan Kamil are the top presidential candidates.

"They have the opportunity to be promoted by a coalition of political parties in the 2024 presidential election. All three are far ahead of Sandi, Anies, and AHY," said Indometer Executive Director Leonard SB in a press release in Jakarta, reported by Antara, Friday, May 7.

In a span of almost 1 year, the electability map of the presidential candidates was controlled by three figures, namely Ganjar, Prabowo, and Ridwan Kamil.

The findings of a survey conducted by Indometer showed that Ganjar was superior with 19.1 percent electability, followed by Prabowo 17.4 percent and RK 14.5 percent.

The electability of the three figures fluctuates or fluctuates. The electability trend of Ganjar and RK has increased, giving them the opportunity to compete fiercely.

Meanwhile, he said, Prabowo's electability which tends to be stable still has a strong chance of being nominated when other names are far below, such as Sandiaga Uno, Anies Baswedan, and Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono.

Anies and Sandi, who had a duet in the 2017 DKI Jakarta Regional Head Election in the last 1 year, continued to decline in electability.

Now Sandi's electability is 6.1 percent, thinner than Anies's 5.9 percent. AHY, who is also Anies-Sandi's rival in the DKI Pilkada, is below with 4.6 percent electability.

According to Leonard, Sandi and AHY have a stronger chance than Anies to be nominated in the 2024 presidential election.

Although, both are down, Sandi's downward trend is not as sharp as Anies. Meanwhile, AHY's electability tends to increase and has the opportunity to overtake Anies.

"The Sandi-AHY pair are more realistic when compared to Anies-AHY," said Leonard.

Other names that parties could consider are Tri Rismaharini (4.4 percent) and Erick Thohir (4.0 percent). In the lower row are Khofifah Indar Parawansa (3.0 percent), Giring Ganesha (2.6 percent), Puan Maharani (1.3 percent), and Mahfud MD (1.1 percent). The rest is under 1 percent, and don't know / don't answer 14.2 percent.

The Indometer survey was conducted from 27 April to 3 May 2021, by telephone to 1,200 respondents throughout Indonesia who were randomly selected from the previous survey since 2019.

The survey margin of error is ± 2.98 percent at the 95 percent confidence level.
