Given the choice between the three most popular names for presidency, 32.7% would choose Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto, followed closely by Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo with 30.8% and Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan with 24.9%, according to a survey by Indikator on Feb 11-21.

Jokowi, as the president is known, remains top of mind, with 15.9% of respondents naming him when asked an open question of who they would vote for. That’s followed by Subianto with 12.3% and Pranowo with 10.5%.

Indonesians are only set to head to the polls in February 2024, but elections have already become a key political issue amid speculation around whether Jokowi would seek to serve a third term as well as early campaigning by various candidates.

The president has said he would obey the constitution, which currently sets a limit of two terms.

Subianto, chairman of the third-biggest party in parliament, lost to Jokowi in the 2014 and 2019 elections.

Indonesians want their next leader to focus on creating jobs, managing food inflation, handling Covid-19, corruption eradication and improving the quality of education.

Indikator’s survey involved 1,200 respondents across the country, with a margin of error of 2.9 percentage points.
