SEN. Bong Go led a recent Senate preference baseline survey conducted by Publicus Asia Inc. with 5 percent of the votes.

In a statement, Publicus said while certain candidates have gained early support, a significant portion of voters remain undecided and open to change.

It said the “unaided test was part of the survey where respondents were asked to name their top-of-mind senatorial candidate.”

The survey was conducted from October 16 to 17 with 1,500 respondents randomly drawn from the market research panel of over 200,000 registered Filipino voters.

The survey firm said Sen. Risa Hontiveros “emerged as the most prominent name in the survey due to her leadership in the Senate investigation into illegal Philippine offshore gaming operations.” However, she is not running for reelection in 2025 since her term ends in 2028.

Go was followed by a four-way tie among cardiologist and health advocate Doc Willie Ong, former senators Manny Pacquiao and Vicente Sotto III, and Sagip party-list Rep. Rodante Marcoleta, who all got 4 percent.

Go was the top pick in Mindanao with 12 percent, while Pacquiao followed at 8 percent.

In North Central Luzon, Ong held a 7 percent lead. In the National Capital Region, returning senators Paolo Benigno Aquino IV and Francis Pangilinan were the respondents’ “top of mind with 7 percent and 6 percent, respectively.”

The Publicus said the survey showed that five to seven out of 10 voters who named candidates such as Go, Ong, Sotto, Marcoleta, Pangilinan, Aquino, returning senator Panfilo Lacson, and Sen. Ronald Dela Rosa were “unlikely to change their votes.”

However, Pacquiao, Sens. Imee Marcos and Bong Revilla, as well as senatorial aspirant Erwin Tulfo, “have a larger number of supporters who are still undecided and could potentially shift their choices as the election approaches.”

Publicus also said that when respondents were shown a list of senatorial candidates, newcomers Ong (41 percent) and Tulfo (40 percent) topped the survey, along with Ben Tulfo (33 percent) and Aquino (27 percent).

These new faces were joined by eight in the Top 12, including Sotto (38 percent), Lacson (38 percent), Go (35 percent), Pia Cayetano (33 percent), Pacquiao (32 percent), Pangilinan (30 percent), Marcos (30 percent), and Dela Rosa (26 percent), it added.

“Despite the strong early showings for several candidates, the survey reveals that 45 percent of voters remain undecided and are likely to change their preferences in the lead-up to the May 2025 elections,” Publicus said.
