For this achievement Jokowi later ran in Jakarta Governor Election in 2012 along with Tjahaja Basuki Purnama as his deputy . They both became partner of the most powerful governor candidate based fast calculation is done on election day ( Wednesday, July 11, 2012 ) , and became the most cagub highlighted in Jakarta Governor Election 2012. However, the nomination of Jokowi tinged with racial issues issued by Rhoma Irama in his lecture at the mosque Al'Isra Tanjung Duren , West Jakarta . On that occasion , Rhoma Irama urged residents to choose which faith leaders , and he mentioned that Mother Jokowi is a non - Muslim . This statement loud protests from the public to Establishments Supervisory Committee will check that Rhoma Irama on suspicion of spreading racial issues . 

The results of his leadership as Jakarta governor , Jokowi won the hearts of society . In fact there are several groups of people who called themselves " Volunteers Jokowi " to support Jokowi forward as a presidential candidate in 2014 elections . 
He received the mandate of the Chairman of Democratic Party of Struggle Megawati Sukarnoputri to be 2014 candidates from the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle 14 March 2014 in the home Pitung Marunda, North Jakarta . 

His first program that instantly gets appreciation is Jakarta Health Card , which is aimed at reforming health insurance in Jakarta .

In the field of education , Jokowi Jakarta Smart Card launched since the beginning of his term , December 1, 2012 to be exact . Premiere in Jakarta Smart Card Yappenda done in high school , Tanjung Priok , North Jakarta and officially launched by Jakarta Governor Joko Widodo ( Jokowi ) .

This program is for people most in need in Indonesia that the country is experiencing economic difficulties and mental because its leader on corruption and scandal involved with many women . Looks like we need leaders who are honest , intelligent , simple and most importantly the people concerned small . Not that he comes from small people who also live in bataran times .
