Bongbong Marcos and Sara Duterte-Carpio remain as the top choice for president and vice president of many Filipinos, according to results of the April 2022 independent Pulse Asia survey, released just one week before the May 9 elections.

The son of the late dictator Ferdinand Marcos Sr. is still the number one pick for president if the elections were held during the April 16 to 21 survey period, chosen by 56% of the 2,400 respondents, the same voter preference he got in the March 2022 Pulse Asia survey.

His rival, Vice President Leni Robredo, came second with 23% voter preference, down by 1 percentage point from 24% last March, although it's barely unchanged with the ± 4% error margin.
