Robredo arrived at the park at about 8:30 p.m., after she and some of her staff had to hop on 2 wheelers to reach the venue and heavy traffic due to road repairs in the area, caused many supporters to walk just to reach the venue.

“Sa lahat ng lugar ginulat n’yo kami. Napakaraming nag-aabang, napakaraming nagpapahayag ng suporta,” Robredo said.

Supporters carried placcards with the phrase “800K Minus One,” in reference to Cavite Gov. Jonvic Remulla earlier promising Ferdinand Marcos Jr. Cavite’s 800,000 votes.
