Based on the Populi Center survey on the 2017 Jakarta gubernatorial election, Basuki Tjahaja Purnama-Djarot Saiful Hidayat (Ahok-Djarot) still holds a higher electability rating than other candidates. The incumbent pair's electability rating stands at 45.5 percent, while Anies Baswedan-Sandiaga Uno and Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono-Sylviana Murni received 23.5 percent and 15.8 percent respectively. Meanwhile, 15.2 percent of voters remain undecided, have not made a decision, or did not answer.
Populi Center researcher, Nona Evita, stated that the incumbent pair's electability rating aligns with the level of public satisfaction with their performance. This refers to survey results that inquired about the considerations behind voters' choices of gubernatorial candidates.
This electability rating is based on a survey conducted by Populi Center through face-to-face interviews with 600 respondents across 6 regions in Jakarta. The research employed a multistage random sampling method with a margin of error of ±4% at a 95 percent confidence level.
