JAKARTA - The United Development Party (PPP) will elect a presidential candidate (candidate) who has the highest electability. The goal is that the electability of PPP can also be raised in the 2024 election.
"If we want to have an electoral effect or electability from presidential candidates, then of course we choose a figure who has the highest survey. Because this is the most rational choice," said Acting Chairman of PPP Muhamad Mardiono, Wednesday, October 26.
Mardiono said that for now PPP does not want to make a hasty decision regarding the presidential candidate. Because, he said, the choice of the presidential candidate is a big thing to build the nation in the future.
"God willing, PPP's political mind will prioritize rational calculations. This means that we will not go into politics indiscriminately and as long as people come. Because the principle is that politics is a service to the nation and state," said Mardiono.
So far, added Mardiono, PPP is still summarizing the lower currents regarding the name of the presidential candidate. This is to find the most fitting figure who can help raise the electability of political parties. "We are currently summarizing the lower currents. Later in the party there will be a mechanism before being brought to KIB," concluded Mardiono.
It is known, a number of PPP administrators in various regions have stated that they support the Governor of Central Java Ganjar Pranowo.
Meanwhile, from the latest survey released by Litbang Kompas, Ganjar Pranowo is in the top position with 23.2 percent. Followed by Prabowo Subianto with 17.6 percent, and Anies Baswedan with 16.5 percent.
