“Support for the ex-lawmaker (Marcos) eases in Class D (-5 percentage points) while Vice-President Robredo’s voting figures increase not only in the Philippines as a whole (+9 percentage points) but also in the rest of Luzon (+14 percentage points), Mindanao (+9 percentage points), and Class D (+10 percentage points),” Pulse Asia said.
Moreno ranks third with 8% followed by Pacquiao (6%) and Lacson (2%).
Meantime, respondents said that if their original choice for president does not pursue his/her candidacy for whatever reason, 23% of likely voters would instead vote for Manila Mayor Francisco Domagoso.
