Sara Duterte to run for VP alongside Marcos Jr.

Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio will run for vice president next year alongside Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr., who is running for president.

President Rodrigo Duterte expressed confusion over his daughter's decision to run for VP, suggesting it was a strategic move by the Marcos camp.

Sara Duterte dropped her reelection bid as mayor last week and has now allied herself with Bongbong Marcos’s Partido Federal ng Pilipinas.

The party adopted Sara Duterte as its vice-presidential bet, while she registered her candidacy under Lakas-CMD through a representative.
