Robredo: VP Top Contender while Escudero steadily surges downward

It is getting brighter for the Robredo campaign.

From trailing in third place for the past months, Robredo has now gained momentum and occupied the top spot for the VP contest. Robredo got a national score of 30%, a 5-percentage point jump over her score in the March 31 Bilang Pilipino SWS Mobile Survey.

Senator Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr was second with 27%, up by only 1-percentage point; while Senator Francis "Chiz" Escudero was third with 25%, a 6-percentage point drop from his previous. For Chiz’ campaign, maybe it’s time to concede with his survey performance consistently revealing a downward trend. The upward slope of increasing support is clearly on the side of Leni.

And she is dominating the Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.

In Luzon, Robredo (31%) is on the lead, followed by Escudero (30%), and Marcos (29%), Cayetano (7%), Honasan (2%), and Trillanes (1%).

Robredo led all the candidates in the Visayas, with 36%, followed by Escudero (24%), Marcos (18%), Cayetano (15%), Trillanes (4%), and Honasan (1%).

In Mindanao, Robredo (27%) is still on the top place, trailed by Marcos (25%), and Cayetano (21%), followed by Escudero (16%), Trillanes (8%) and Honasan.

With less than a month before the precincts open, Grace Poe and Leni Robredo emerged to be the top contenders for the Presidency and the Vice-Presidency.

Grace-Leni: On Top of the Polls

Victory is getting clearer and nearer.

From a humble, grassroots, people-oriented campaign, without the backing of rich and influential people, the campaign for Grace Poe and Leni Robredo are now being seen to work in the latest survey results. More people have come to realize that Poe and Robredo are the best suited persons for the job.

In the Bilang Pilipino April 13 and 14 SWS Mobile Survey Report exclusive to TV5 NETWORK, the presidential aspirants obtained the following scores: Poe 34%, Duterte 33%, Roxas 16%, Binay 15%, and Santiago 1%.

For the vice presidential race, it' s Robredo 30%, Marcos 27%, Escudero 25%, Cayetano 13%, Trillanes 3% and Honasan 1%.

The people have spoken. It’s Grace Poe and Leni Robredo this coming May 9.

Chiz: A Man of Too Many Words

The last VP debate exposes us to one glaring truth – Chiz Escudero is a man of too many words. Yet, we can see no clear vision and no clear plan of action. This will be the form of governance for Chiz – all talk, no work. His legislative performance is a clear manifestation of this, with only a few bills passed.

This is not the kind of leader that we deserve. We don’t need politicians who only know how to preach and vomit words but completely fail to deliver their campaign promises and platform. We demand sincerity in speeches and not the one that is rehearsed and obviously written by speechwriters. This is the brand of traditional politics that we must abhor and abandon.

With the downward slope of Chiz’ poll standings, more and more people have realized this. It is now time for Chiz to look at the polls, abandon the race and just “pole-dance” his way out of the VP Race.

Some netizens were quick to notice Chiz' apparent verbosity (and made fun of it).

Look at this article from Rappler:

Grace-Leni ticket intensifies, Metro Manila seen to go Poe-Robredo

The polls do not capture the whole picture.

Less than a month before the voting precincts open, a silent majority is slowly growing and gaining numbers in terms of supporters. That is the Grace Poe-Leni Robredo ticket. All over the metro, the evidence of the exodus of supporters from other candidates to the Poe-Robredo tandem is manifest. The campaign is already snowballing and exponentially increasing. This is the outcome that will most likely catch us off–guard this May 9. After all, for the past three elections those who got elected to be the President and the VP did not really come from the same party or campaign ticket.

Fellow voters, we are already bored with partisan, traditional politics. Let’s vote for genuine leadership. Let’s vote for a “Gobyernong may Puso, na hindi kinakalimutan ang mga nasa laylayan ng lipunan.”

Vote for Grace Poe and Leni Robredo!

Grace-Leni Supporters: Growing by the Numbers

We are rising.

People have now realized and switch sides to the Poe-Robredo tandem. For Grace Poe’s camp, more people have woken up from the “Escudero” nightmare and how Chiz had only used Poe in order to gain political clout and a solid supporters’ base.

Evidence of this shift is the growing frequency of Grace Poe-Leni Robredo campaign materials spread out across the metro. And this campaign is not supported by big businesses and rich individuals. This is a truly people’s campaign originating from the grassroots. The ordinary Filipino has made the move to elect genuine leaders who have a true concern for the country’s development.

Now is the perfect time to abandon Chiz’ losing VP dream.

Make the right choice!

Grace-Leni for 2016!

11. Chiz Escudero

Chiz to crash, Leni on the rise

For the Vice-Presidential Elections, it is now a two-way race between Leni Robredo and Bongbong Marcos. Chiz Escudero is on a downhill path to crashing and eventually becoming an insignificant part of the race. It is an inevitable fact that in the coming weeks, Chiz will become an insignificant, negligible candidate.

It is also umdeniable fact that more and more of Chiz' so-called supporters are jumping ship and abandoning him as revealed by the latest survey results. Chiz' survey performance is essentially a track record of negatives and losses. Red is painted all over his poll records as we can clearly see below.

Bongbong may also be on the rise, but the undisputed biggest gainer in the VP race is Leni Robredo who has now accumulated a combined 19% increase in voter's preference. The future is getting brighter and brighter with Leni while for Chiz is getting dimmer and dimmer.

Many voters have already made the right choice of supporting Leni Robredo.

Poe-Robredo 2016!

Chiz endorses Leni Robredo

Senator Chiz Escudero has also made the right "Leni's" choice!

An endorsement video has now gone viral in social media and YouTube which portrays Sen. Escudero's unequivocal support to VP Presidential candidate Leni Robredo. Even Chiz becomes convinced that the polls are pointing to the direction that Leni will win the VP position.

Poe's running mate might as well withdraw from the race and throw his support to Leni. Leni and her "Tsinelas Leadership" is the perfect combination that will complement Grace Poe's "Gobyernong may Puso."

So fellow voters, let's follow Chiz and make the Leni's choice!

Poe-Robredo 2016!
