NasDem Party Chairman, Surya Paloh declared that his party is not one that must support its cadres in regional elections (Pilkada), but rather supports figures with a high chance of winning.

Previously, PDIP opened the possibility for former Jakarta Governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama, also known as Ahok, and Djarot Syaiful Hidayat to be nominated in the North Sumatra Pilkada. PDIP Central Executive Board Chairman Eriko Sotarduga mentioned that these two names have been requested to run in both North Sumatra and Jakarta.

Political communication expert from Esa Unggul University, M. Jamiluddin Ritonga, assesses that PKS’s decision to nominate its cadre in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada is a rational move. Not only because of its status as the winner of the 2024 legislative elections in Jakarta, but also due to the party’s solid machinery. However, according to Jamil, the decision to propose Sohibul Iman as a gubernatorial candidate is another matter. The former PKS President is considered not popular among Jakarta residents. “PKS proposing Sohibul Iman seems to be aimed at increasing their bargaining position. As the winner of the 2024 legislative elections in Jakarta, PKS wants its cadre to be included in the Jakarta gubernatorial or deputy gubernatorial race. Therefore, PKS seems to have nominated Sohibul Iman early on. The goal is to ensure that PKS at least gets the deputy gubernatorial position,” stated Jamil to Liputan6.com on Monday, June 24, 2024.

NasDem Party General Chairman Surya Paloh mentioned that Anies Baswedan still has the highest electability and is likely to win in the Jakarta Pilkada. “From what I gather from various sources, Anies Baswedan currently dominates all survey scores, ranking number one. I think it’s exhausting for anyone to face him in Jakarta,” said Surya Paloh at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on Monday, June 24, 2024. Even compared to NasDem Party Treasurer Ahmad Sahroni, Anies’s electability is still much higher. Thus, Surya Paloh does not want to risk forcing his cadre to run in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. “NasDem does not prioritize candidacy issues solely from the cadre aspect,” said Paloh. “Sahroni may have the capability, we believe that, but his electability in the Jakarta arena needs careful consideration,” he added.

**Residents Prepare KK and E-KTP** “The results of the DP4 synchronization with the latest DPT voters are the basis for the coklit process, matching and research, which we will validate to see if the 8,315,669 voters’ data is truly valid or not,” stated. Furthermore, Fahmi hopes that residents can prepare several population documents to facilitate Pantarlih officers during the coklit process. Residents are requested to prepare their e-KTP and family card (Kartu Keluarga).

**Former Anies Spokesperson Praises Sohibul Iman, Criticizes Jakarta Pilkada as Stepping Stone to 2029 Presidential Election** Former Co-Captain of the Anies Baswedan-Muhaimin Iskandar (AMIN) Winning Team, Sudirman Said, supports the PKS DPP’s decision to nominate Sohibul Iman as the 2024 Jakarta gubernatorial candidate. Sohibul Iman’s capacity and integrity are proven, so there is no doubt about his ability to lead Jakarta in the future. “Certainly, friends and cadres in the PKS Faction in the DKI DPRD will be good sources and provide good input, given their daily legislative, budgetary, and oversight duties in Jakarta Province,” said Sudirman, as quoted by Antara, on Monday, June 24, 2024. According to the former Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM), Sohibul Iman has a wide network among professionals and businesspeople. Therefore, he believes Sohibul will quickly receive the necessary input. Additionally, Sudirman Said believes that Sohibul is the right person to lead Jakarta because he will work with focus. So far, Sudirman has not seen any aspirations for Sohibul to advance to a higher political competition, such as the presidential election. Sudirman also reminds the public to choose gubernatorial candidates who genuinely want to manage Jakarta towards becoming a global city while addressing its complex problems. “I see Jakarta in an important transformation process. The next Jakarta governor must be 100 percent focused. Do not make Jakarta merely a political stage, especially a stepping stone to the 2029 presidential election,” said the former spokesperson for Anies Baswedan.

“We thank the friends from the North Sumatra DPD for the request. But the decision is not up to us,” said Ahok during the 5th PDIP National Working Meeting (Rakernas) at Beach City International Stadium, Ancol, If you have almost any questions with regards to exactly where in addition to the way to make use of late-onset Alzheimer’s, you possibly can e mail us at our page.

Unexpectedly, the Islamic party declared Mohamad Sohibul Iman as the Jakarta gubernatorial candidate, while two well-known names, Anies Baswedan and Ridwan Kamil, were frequently mentioned in the news. As the winning party in the 2024 legislative elections in Jakarta, PKS feels entitled and well-positioned to propose its own cadre. “As the winning party (legislative elections) in Jakarta, PKS has decided to advocate for its best cadre as the Jakarta gubernatorial candidate. The candidate we are nominating is Mohamad Sohibul Iman, who currently serves as the Deputy Chair of the PKS Syuro Council,” stated PKS Central Executive Board (DPP) Spokesperson Ahmad Mabruri on Sunday, June 23, 2024. “We have decided that we will nominate Mohamad Sohibul Iman, former PKS President, former Deputy Speaker of the DPR RI, and former Rector of Paramadina University. With whom PKS and Mr. Sohibul Iman will pair, we will see based on the coalition composition that forms,” Mabruri continued.
