Several survey institutions have released their findings on the electability of the two gubernatorial candidate pairs in the second round of the 2017 Jakarta gubernatorial election. The results show that 6 out of 7 institutions releasing surveys favored the pair Anies Rasyid Baswedan-Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno in the second round.
Lingkaran Survei Indonesia (LSI) Denny JA was the institution that most strongly favored Anies-Sandi. According to LSI, the electability of this pair (number 3) reached 51.4 percent, while the incumbent pair Ahok-Djarot only reached 42.7 percent. Meanwhile, Charta Politika was the only institution that placed Ahok-Djarot in first place. In its survey, Charta stated Ahok's electability at 47.3 percent, above Anies who only obtained 44.8 percent of the vote.
However, many survey institutions could not definitively predict who would win the second round of the Jakarta gubernatorial election on April 19, 2017. This is because the difference in electability obtained in the latest surveys was still within the margin of error.
