Sara’s endorsement could boost my votes —Bato
Senator Ronald "Bato" Dela Rosa believes Vice President Sara Duterte's endorsement will significantly boost his and other senatorial candidates' chances in the May 2025 elections.
Dela Rosa, seeking reelection under PDP-Laban, stated that he is counting on the Vice President's backing to improve their electoral prospects.
He cited a March 2025 Pulse Asia survey showing Duterte's approval rating increased from 52% to 59%, and her disapproval rating dropped from 26% to 16%.
The survey also indicated a rise in Duterte's trust rating from 53% in February to 61% in March, making her the national leader with the highest trust rating.
Duterte has officially endorsed the ten candidates of PDP-Laban, including Dela Rosa.
She has also endorsed Senator Imee Marcos and Las Piñas Representative Camille Villar.
