Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) voters are believed to constitute a significant portion of the Indonesian electorate. According to a May 2023 *Kompas* Research and Development survey, 6.17% of total respondents identified themselves as NU members.

In a simulated 2024 presidential election survey, NU respondents predominantly chose Prabowo Subianto, with 25.8% selecting him. This figure represents a 7% increase from the January 2023 survey, which recorded 18.2%.

Ganjar Pranowo secured second place among NU respondents' presidential choices, with 24.7%. Anies Baswedan followed in third place with 12.3%.

"Prabowo Subianto, Ganjar Pranowo, and Anies Baswedan emerged as the three most frequently mentioned presidential candidates," wrote the *Kompas* Research and Development team in their report.

West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil ranked fourth with 7.1%, while Sandiaga Uno placed fifth with 1.3%. The remaining results are included in the graph.

In terms of political parties, PDI-P ranked first among NU respondents' preferred parties, with an electability rating of 22.6%, followed by Gerindra with 19.6%.

It should be noted that *Kompas* Research and Development did not provide further details on this NU voter base survey. However, this survey is part of a larger national survey conducted in May 2023, involving 1,200 respondents.

Respondents were selected randomly through face-to-face interviews. Data collection employed a stratified systematic sampling method across 38 provinces in Indonesia.

This macro data was collected from April 29 to May 10, 2023, with a margin of error of approximately 2.83% and a 95% confidence level.
