JAKARTA - Indonesia Polling Stations (IPS) released a recent survey related to the electability of presidential candidates (candidates) in 2024. As a result, the General Chairperson of the Gerindra Party, Prabowo Subianto, took the top position with 33.2 percent.
Followed by Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo in second place with 22.1 percent, and former DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan in third place with 20.9 percent.
"Based on the results of the IPS survey, it can be concluded that a year before the 2024 election, the public's choice has narrowed to only three presidential candidates, namely Prabowo Subianto, Ganjar Pranowo and Anies Baswedan," said IPS senior researcher Alfin Sugianto in his statement, Tuesday, February 28.
"Prabowo Subianto remains leading over all his competitors when the respondents were asked a closed question (with a list of names). A total of 33.2 respondents made their choice to Prabowo if the presidential election was held at this time," he continued.
Because Ganjar and Anies have also been included in the public's top of mind quite significantly, he continued, when asked a closed question of electability, they also remained in the top 3 positions.
"Who will be elected President of the Republic of Indonesia for the period 2024-2029, it seems that they will not leave the three figures," said Alfin.
Alfin said that the IPS survey and surveys of other mainstream institutions indicated that it was difficult for an alternative figure to emerge in the 2024 presidential election outside the three figures.
Meanwhile, according to him, from the top three presidential candidates who have the biggest chance of winning the 2024 presidential election, Prabowo Subianto. This is because the electability of the Gerindra chairman and the Minister of Defense in the last few months has shown that the trend is getting stronger.
"Even Prabowo's electability in the IPS survey in February 2023 has touched 33.2 percent. At the same time Ganjar and Anies' electability continues to be stuck at 20 percent," said Alfin.

Fifth, the Head of Democrats Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono with 4.3 percent. Sixth, the Minister of SOEs Erick Thohir 4.2 percent, and the seventh Menparekraf Sandiaga Uno with 2.7 percent.
