"Community in Gerindra, East Java, both cadres and administrators, asked Mr. Prabowo to bring Ms. Khofifah to become governor," said Hasyim. He said that the recommendation for Khofifah was said to consider aspirations from the Gerindra Party's grassroots and was greeted with open arms by Prabowo. "Yes, I approve," he said. Regarding the figure who will be Khofifah's companion to run in the 2024 East Java Pilkada, Hasyim said that if this was done further discussion, as well as considering input from Khofifah. "Later we will suppress it, then depend on Mrs. Khofifah," he said.

Gerindra's recommendation for Khofifah followed the steps of the National Mandate Party (PAN). Support also came from the Democratic Party. However, it is still only verbal. "Yesterday PAN, then verbally Mr. SBY (Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono) also said that God willing, the Democrats will also support it," he said. Khofifah also stated that she had heard information on support from the Golkar Party, he was waiting for his official participation. "Golkar has confirmed it, but the letter has not arrived. I have received the information," he said.

When asked about the candidate for deputy governor, Khofifah confirmed that the recommendations she received were only related to the governor's candidacy, there was no name of a candidate for assistant in the 2024 East Java Pilkada. "The pair will later appoint a partner, this is the recommendation, something like that," he said. Khofifah is the Governor of East Java who was inaugurated in 2019 and co-exist with Emil Elestianto Dardak as Deputy Governor of East Java. The Khofifah-Emil pair officially occupied the seat of the leader of East Java after defeating the pair Saifullah Yusuf-Puti Guntur Soekarno in the 2018 East Java Pilkada.
