SCHEDULE: 2022 president, VP candidates’ proclamation rallies
The official campaign period for nationally-elected positions in the Philippines' May 9, 2022 elections begins on February 8, with most, but not all, tandems holding proclamation rallies.
While the Commission on Elections designated February 8 as the start of the campaign period, many aspirants engaged in early campaigning since 2021, which was not subject to Comelec rules.
Campaigning will be prohibited on April 14 and 15 (Maundy Thursday and Good Friday), and on May 8 and 9 (election eve and election day).
The Domagoso-Ong tandem, led by Manila Mayor Isko Moreno Domagoso and Dr. Willie Ong, will launch their campaign at Kartilya ng Katipunan in Manila, accompanied by their senatorial candidates.
Senator Panfilo 'Ping' Lacson and Senate President Vicente Sotto III will hold their proclamation rally at the Imus Grandstand in Cavite, following a mass at Imus Cathedral.
