Dream - The Indikator Politik Indonesia survey institution revealed the reason for the low votes of the number 3 pair, Ganjar-Mahfud, and their position at the bottom in the quick count results of the 2024 Presidential Election (Pilpres). The Executive Director of Indikator Politik Indonesia, Burhanuddin Muhtadi, stated that Ganjar-Mahfud's low votes were due to the mismatch between the party elite's democratic narrative and the mass base.

According to Burhanuddin, Prabowo and Ganjar's voter base tends to be satisfied with the current state of democracy, which is considered good. "Now, once again, this explains why candidate number 03 underperforms," quoted Dream from merdeka.com.

Many supporters of Ganjar-Mahfud feel satisfied with the democracy of the Jokowi era because they see it from the perspective of ease in earning a living and getting a good job. "But when asked about their support base, they are satisfied, so it will indeed be difficult for Mas Ganjar in the 2024 election because the aspirations of the elites do not align with his time," he said.

This is different from the number 1 pair Anies-Cak Imin. The issue of a bad democratic condition is more accepted by the supporters of the AMIN pair by achieving a percentage of dissatisfaction of 41.8 percent and satisfaction of 55.9 percent. "Mr. Anies sells dissatisfaction with democracy from the perspective of civil liberties. At least 41.8 percent feel it. So if selling democracy is sick among the supporters of Mas Anies, it has resonance," said Burhanuddin.

"While for the supporters of the Anies-Muhaimin candidate pair, there are 36.2 percent who did not disclose their support, and there are 26.2 percent who actively expressed their support for Anies-Muhaimin. 'This also explains why the supporters of Mas Ganjar and Prof Mahfud have the least support, because their supporters tend to be less active compared to the other two pairs,' he said."
