JAKARTA - Young voters in the age group of 17 to 22 years prefer the Joko Widodo-Jusuf Kalla pair to the Prabowo Subianto-Hatta Rajasa duo for the presidential election scheduled on July 9, according to Polcomm.
Based on its recent survey involving 1.2 thousand respondents from 33 provinces in the country, 6.4 percent of the total of 46.4 percent of the Jokowi-JK pairs supporters were young voters while the rest were aged between 23 and 43 years, Polcomms researcher, Adhal Makkuraga Putra, remarked here on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, out of the 43.3 percent supporters of the Prabowo Subianto-Hatta Rajasa pair only 3.6 percent were young voters while the rest were aged between 23 and 40 years.
"Young voters prefer concrete programs from candidates. They have high hopes for better welfare such as increasing wages and employment opportunities," Afdhal pointed out.
In terms of education, the number of postgraduates who would choose Prabowo reached 1.2 percent while only 0.6 percent preferred Jokowi, Afdhal added. But, the Jokowi-JK pair attracted more university graduates reaching 14.8 percent as compared to only 11.2 percent who preferred the Prabowo-Hatta duo.
With regard to the electability of the two pairs of presidential and vice presidential candidates, the Jokowi-JK pair recorded a higher percentage at 46.4 percent while the Prabowo-Hatta duo only managed to garner 43.3 percent, thus leaving a fine margin of only 3.1 percent.
