JAKARTA - Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo is advised to change political parties if he wants to continue running as a presidential candidate in the 2024 presidential election. One of them is the NasDem Party. Because the party created by Surya Paloh will open a presidential candidate convention in 2022.
This method is a solution if Ganjar is not accommodated by the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP). Especially in the latest results from the Y-Publica survey agency, Ganjar's electability continued to advance until he managed to break through 20.2 percent.
Even the Indonesian Political Parameter Research Institute (PPI) noted that in February 2021, the popularity between PDIP DPP Chair Puan Maharani and Ganjar was equal among PDIP voters, which was in the 60-62 percent range.
So how will PDIP respond if Ganjar really wants to move to the NasDem Party?
"Just ask the GP (Ganjar Pranowo, ed)," said senior PDIP politician Hendrawan when contacted by VOI, Monday, May 31.
Previously, the Head of Media and Public Communication of the NasDem DPP Charles Meikyansah said that so far his party had not chosen let alone brought any figures to run for the 2024 presidential election. Nasdem, because Charles had only started the presidential candidate convention in 2022.
In the convention, Charles said that everyone has the same opportunity to join the convention.
"Nasdem will only start the 2022 convention. Anyone can participate in the presidential convention," said Charles, Wednesday, May 26.
This issue surfaced after a poster rumored that Ganjar Pranowo was heading to the Nasdem party circulated on social media. This is apart from the problem of not being invited by the Governor of Central Java by the Chairperson of the PDI-P DPP, Puan Maharani at the Marhaen Panti, Semarang City recently.
This was known based on the poster upload on the @Sailendra.utama Instagram account on Tuesday, May 25. Seen in the poster is the figure of Ganjar Pranowo wearing the typical clothes of the Nasdem Party with the background of the party's pride.
The poster also contains a number of information stating that Ganjar Pranowo's move to Nasdem is only a rumor.
"RUMOR, it is recommended to Nasdem if the PDIP does not support it for 2024. Ganjar Pranowo is 52 years old. Governor since 2013, Electability 15.7 percent, and Market Value Unknown," read the sentence in the poster's statement.
In addition, the poster upload on the second slide also shows a photo of Ganjar with a black background along with writing that says "It doesn't matter what the lady says, what matters is what God says. Reward 2024". This second poster is a satire for Puan Maharani who ignores the figure of Ganjar Pranowo
