The survey was implemented from February 26 to March 6, 2026 through face-to-face interviews with a nationally representative sample of 2,637 adults aged 18 years and above. The sampling design employed regional stratification across all 18 regions and further classification by urban and rural clusters. The national estimates carry a ±2 percent margin of error at a 96 percent confidence level, while subnational estimates for each geographic area carry a ±5 percent margin of error at a 95 percent confidence level.
Weighting adjustments were applied to align the regional distribution of respondents with COMELEC’s latest voter registration data, totaling 68,618,667 registered voters. The final weighted regional proportions were 11 percent National Capital Region, 45 percent Luzon excluding NCR, 20 percent Visayas, and 24 percent Mindanao. Gender distribution was likewise aligned with COMELEC data at 51 percent female and 49 percent male.
Socioeconomic classification followed established consumer segmentation standards in the Philippines, with respondents distributed as 7 percent from Class ABC, 75 percent from Class D, and 18 percent from Class E.
