JAKARTA, KOMPAS — Several former regional leaders have started to hunt for tickets to be able to run again in the 2024 Regional Head Election. Some have already managed to secure support, while others have just applied as prospective regional head candidates to several political parties.
According to Muhlis, the task of the DPD PDI-P Banten in the screening process is only to record and examine the files of the prospective candidates who register. Meanwhile, in-depth review of vision-mission and other matters is the responsibility of the PDI-P DPP.
According to Muhlis, one of the things that will be asked of potential candidates is their willingness to bring other political parties to join PDI-P in the Banten Regional Election. "When it comes to the DPP later on, the candidates will be asked whether they will bring coalition friends or not. That will also be a consideration in determining the figure to be endorsed. For example, Airin from Golkar has 14 seats in the Banten DPRD," he said.
Lobbies
Vice Chairman of Golkar Party, Nurul Arifin, stated that lobbying to build a coalition in the regional elections is not only done by political parties, but also by prospective regional heads. This can be seen from Airin's efforts in participating in the selection process for the PDI-P's prospective gubernatorial candidate in Banten.
"Coalitions are not always the same as presidential election coalitions. "It all depends on the suitability and dynamics of the region," he explained.
The steps taken by Golkar cadres to participate in candidate selection by other parties are also considered valid for the formation of a coalition. The goal is realistic and objective, namely to achieve victory.
Meanwhile, besides Banten, the screening of potential regional heads by PDI-P is also being conducted in all regions, including DKI Jakarta. Until now, PDI-P is still building alliances with other political parties to nominate Jakarta's governor and deputy governor candidates.
The Secretary of DPD PDI-P Jakarta, Pantas Nainggolan, stated that political elites are still lobbying each other. This is because no political party in Jakarta can field their own candidate.
"Everyone needs to collaborate. The process is still closed lobbies. "We have opened (registration), but it's not yet clear," he said.
