Duterte-Carpio still top choice for president in Pulse Asia survey

Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio remains the top presidential choice in a recent Pulse Asia survey with 20% support, though her rating has dropped.

Former senator Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr. is the second choice with 15% support, followed by Manila Mayor Francisco 'Isko Moreno' Domagoso at 13% and Senator Emmanuel 'Manny' Pacquiao at 12%.

Despite leading the presidential survey, Mayor Duterte has stated she will not run for president due to a family agreement that only one member can seek a national position in 2022.

Her father, President Rodrigo Duterte, has accepted the PDP-Laban party nomination for vice president.

Supporters are now engaging in prayer caravans, hoping to convince Mayor Duterte to change her mind about seeking the presidency.

The filing of certificates of candidacy is scheduled from October 1 to 8.
