Senator Manny Pacquiao topped again Pulse Asia's latest survey on the Filipinos' preferred senatorial candidates for next year's national elections, the pollster said on Thursday.
The boxer-turned-politician led the list of preferred candidates with 58.9 percent backing among respondents.
He was followed by Manila City Mayor Isko Moreno with 53 percent.
Pulse Asia noted that among 57 individuals named in the survey conducted Feb. 22 - March 3 this year, 15 "would have a statistical chance of winning if the May 2022 elections coincided with the conduct of survey interviews."
Most of the preferred to win the senatorial seat are either present or former members of Congress.
Among the strong contenders for the Senate seat are broadcaster Raffy Tulfo with 48.1 percent, Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio with 47.5 percent, Sorsogon Gov. Francis Escudero with 46.6, and Deputy House Speaker Loren Legarda with 46.2 percent.
They all share the 3rd to 7th places, according to the survey. Duterte-Carpio topped the preferred presidential candidates in the same poll.
Rep. Alan Peter Cayetano also had 44.4 percent backing (3rd to 8th places), followed by son of late dictator Ferdinand Marcos, Bongbong Marcos Jr., with 40.7 percent (7th to 10th places), Senators Panfilo Lacson and Juan Miguel Zubiri with 38.1 each (8th to 11th places), and TV personality Willie Revillame with 34.1 percent (9th to 11 places).
