There is Still Hope for All Presidential Candidates

Ganjar Pranowo, Prabowo Subianto and Anies Baswedan still dominate the electability ratings. Ganjar’s increase in electability is quite consistent.

A year before the 2024 presidential election, the movements of expected presidential candidates are getting more intense. The declaration, coalition and the joining of figures to particular parties is the heating up of political movements. These dynamics are influential on the electability of these figures. Some are lucky, some stumble.

The results of Kompas’ periodic survey showed that even though the political intensity had started in the lead up to the presidential election, the electability potential of each permanent candidate remains quite low, below 30 percent. The increase and decrease in the potential of each figure’s selection also remains insignificant. The survey was conducted with 1,202 respondents from the 25 January to 4 February in 38 provinces, with a margin of error of 2.83 percent.
