The 2020 Surabaya mayoral election was held on 9 December 2020, as part of the 2020 simultaneous local elections across Indonesia.
Two candidates ran in the election:[1] [2]
Cahyadi, who had worked under the current incumbent mayor Tri Rismaharini, received endorsements from Rismaharini's previous campaign team, and later on Rismaharini also participated in campaigning for Cahyadi.[3] [4] His running mate Armudji was a member of the East Java Regional People's Representative Council, and used to be speaker of the Surabaya city council.[2] Cahyadi was selected over fellow PDI-P member and Risma's deputy Whisnu Sakti Buana.[5]
Arifin's running mate was Mujiaman, formerly president director of the municipal water company.[6]
Two rounds of public debates were held between the candidates on 4 and 18 November 2020.[7] [8] In terms of reported campaign donations, the Eri-Armudji ticket received Rp 1.8 billion, while the Machfud-Mujiaman ticket received Rp 7.3 billion.[9] On 1 December 2020, the Surabaya branch of PDI-P filed a report against the Machfud-Mujiaman campaign team for using Rismaharini's imagery in campaigning material while she had declared her support for the Eri-Armudji ticket.[10]
A number of survey organizations conducted opinion polls regarding the mayoral election, with differing results.[11]
