Polling firm Publicus Asia has released the results of the election survey for mayor and vice mayor in the 17 local government units (LGUs) in the National Capital Region (NCR).
The firm’s Pahayag NCR Election Tracker Survey is an independent and non-commissioned poll conducted by Publicus Asia from Feb. 18 to 24 among 1,625 respondents residing in Metro Manila and drawn from a market research panel of over 200,000 Filipinos by American market research firm PureSpectrum.
“The final survey research panel was restricted to registered voters. Parameters based on respondent age, gender, and location were also utilized in the sample formulation in order for the resulting sample to conform more closely to the features of the voting population, as defined by statistics from the COMELEC ,” it said.
PureSpectrum explained that its samples “are not affiliated with any bias or political party. All opinions voiced in the interpretation and analyses of the data are those of the writer and/or project sponsor.”
According to Publicus Asia, the survey results showed that “majority of NCR mayoral races are lopsided – with the leading candidate enjoying an average 49-point lead. The numbers suggest that the races for vice mayor are more competitive, with an average gap of 25 points between the first and second choices for the position.”
In the mayoral race in the NCR, eight incumbents are running for reelection. These are in Las Pinas, Makati, Marikina, Pasay, Pasig, Pateros, Quezon City and San Juan.
Relatives of the incumbent who are running for mayor are in Caloocan, Malabon, Mandaluyong, Navotas, Paranaque, Taguig and Valenzuela.
In Muntinlupa, Mayor Jaime Fresnedi is finishing his term as mayor with Rep. Ruffy Biazon running in his position. Fresnedi is running for congressman.
In Manila, Vice Mayor Honey Lacuna is running for mayor while Mayor Isko Moreno is running for president.
The Commission on Elections (Comelec) has set the national and local elections on May 9.
Here are the survey results for mayor and vice mayor in the 17 LGUs in the NCR:
