MANILA, Philippines. Opposition standard bearer Vice President Jejomar Binay has overtaken his closest rival Senator Grace Poe in the latest Business World-Social Weather Station (BW-SWS) presidential survey conducted from January 8 to 10 among 1,200 registered respondents.
Binay, who got the nod of 31% respondents, maintained his lead over Poe who received 24% of the votes. Liberal party standard Manuel “Mar” Roxas II, who was the choice of 21% respondents, and Davao City Mayor Rodrigo “Rody” Duterte, who received 20% of the votes, were in a statistical tie with Poe.
Compared to an SWS survey conducted last December, the latest result showed that Binay was five points higher. Experts believe that the issues haunting Binay’s competitors helped him rise in the polls.
Senator Francis “Chiz” Escudero topped the vice presidential derby getting 28%, a decrease from 30%.
