Mahfud MD、Ridwan Kamil To Sandiaga Masuk Radar Cawapres Ganjar

Chairman of the PDI-P (PDIP) DPP Puan Maharani mentioned a number of candidates for vice president (cawapres) paired with Ganjar Pranowo. There are 10 names, including Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Mahfud MD to Chairman of the Democratic Party Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY).

This statement was made in response to speculation over the name of the vice presidential candidate Ganjar. Puan said, there are many names to consider.

"There are ten vice presidential candidates, there are ten names. If I may call them in the media, Mr. Mahfud has entered his name, Mr. Erick Thohir, Mr. Ridwan Kamil, Mr. Sandiaga Uno, then there is Mr. AHY, right? Mr. AHY. Who else, Mas? Mr. Airlangga, right," said Puan at the PDIP DPP Party School, Lenteng Agung, South Jakarta, Tuesday, June 6.

All names included in the map, continued Puan, will be considered. Their advantages will be seen one by one and the best chosen.

"If I may mention that name and all of them certainly have advantages that will be considered later," he said.

Although they have not discussed further in Rakernas III, the elected figure must have something in common. "In accordance with vision and mission, ideals," said the Speaker of the DPR.

"We will continue to cone names but not today. Today we are still considering the existing names," continued Puan.

Next, the name will be submitted to PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri for discussion with all parties, including Ganjar.

"The general chairman will tell the presidential candidate whether it is comfortable to have a companion, b, c, d," said Puan.
