In his latest vlog message, the President was asked what he thought were the superpowers of each of his senatorial bet if they were superheroes. He said their superpower is their love for the people.

"Sa record nila, sa kanilang nagawa na at sa kanilang nais gawin, maliwanag na maliwanag na ang super power ng lahat ng kandidato ng Alyansa ay ang pagmamahal sa kapwa Pilipino (Based on their track record and what they aim to do, it’s clear that the super power of all Alyansa candidates is their love for the Filipino people)," he said.

He said the members of the slate chose to serve the public even when they could have pursued easier paths.

"Lahat po sila ay nagsakripisyo para makapagserbisyo lang sa taong bayan. 'Yan ang super power ng Alyansa (They all made sacrifices just to serve the people. That’s the super power of the Alyansa)," he said.

Marcos said Alyansa was created to advance the aspirations of ordinary Filipinos under his vision of a “Bagong Pilipinas.”

"Ang Alyansa Para sa Bagong Pilipinas ay nandito para bigyang buhay ang mithiin ng bawat Pilipino (The Alyansa Para sa Bagong Pilipinas is here to bring every Filipino’s dreams to life)," he said.

"Nandito po sila para siguruhin na sama-sama tayo tungo sa Bagong Pilipinas (They're here to ensure that we are all heading toward a Bagong Pilipinas)," he added.

Marcos ended his vlog by calling all voters to complete the Alyansa ticket on election day.

"Sa 12 po ng Mayo, Alyansa po all the way (On May 12, let’s go all the way with the Alyansa)," he said.

The campaign period for national candidates officially ends on May 10.

The President has actively campaigned for his slate in various provinces. His candidates are:
  • Benhur Abalos – Former Interior and Local Government Secretary
  • Abby Binay – Makati City Mayor
  • Pia Cayetano – Senator
  • Panfilo “Ping” Lacson – Former Senator
  • Lito Lapid – Senator
  • Manny Pacquiao – Former Senator
  • Ramon “Bong” Revilla Jr. – Senator
  • Vicente “Tito” Sotto III – Former Senate President
  • Francis Tolentino – Senate Majority Leader
  • Erwin Tulfo – ACT-CIS Party-list Representative
  • Camille Villar – House Deputy Speaker and Las Piñas Representative

Marcos's sister, Senator Imee Marcos, used to be part of Alyansa, but she left the ticket due to political differences, particularly on the arrest and turnover of former president Rodrigo Duterte to the International Criminal Court on March 11.
