RE: Pulse Asia’s April 2010

Filipinos’ Senatorial and Party-List Group Preferences
for the May 2010 Elections

In keeping with our academic nature, Pulse Asia disseminates to the public some
findings from its April 2010 Pre-Election national survey.

The survey fieldwork was conducted from April 23 to 25, 2010 using face-to-face
interviews. Key developments in April 2010 include the following: (1) defections from
the Lakas-Kampi Christian Muslim Democrats (CMD) mostly to the Nacionalista Party
(NP) and the Liberal Party (LP); (2) election-related issues such as the purchase of
ultraviolet lamps (UV) because the UV readers of the Precinct Count Optical Scan
(PCOS) machines were unable to read the UV markings on the ballots, the scrapping of
the P 700 million contract for the purchase of ballot secrecy folders, and the re-bidding of
the contract for the purchase of indelible ink; (3) completion of the printing of ballots for
the May 2010 elections; (4) various incidents of election-related violence across the
country; (5) Senator Francis G. Escudero’s endorsement of Senator Benigno Simeon C.
Aquino III for president and Makati City Mayor Jejomar C. Binay for vice-president; (6)
accusations made by former President Joseph E. Estrada and Senate President Juan Ponce
Enrile against Senator Manuel B. Villar, Jr. that while serving as Senate President in
2007, Senator Villar used his position to pressure the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) to
decide in his favor on a matter concerning the public offering of his real estate company’s
shares; (7) Senator Richard J. Gordon’s filing of charges against two survey groups; (8)
petitions from various sectors for a parallel manual count of votes; (9) the Supreme
Court’s final ruling allowing President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo to appoint the next
chief justice (but not the next Sandiganbayan Justice); (10) calls for the resignation and
disbarment of Department of Justice (DOJ) Acting Secretary Alberto Agra following his
decision to clear two key suspects in the Maguindanao massacre; and (11) increase in
power rates despite rotating brownouts in Metro Manila and other parts of the country.

For the electoral preference module, Pulse Asia made use of a sample ballot,
measuring 8.5” x 26”, that is a facsimile of the COMELEC official ballot. Respondents
were asked to indicate their preference on the ballot based on the instructions written
therein.

Based on a multistage probability sample of 1,800 registered voters 18 years old

and above, Pulse Asia’s nationwide survey has a ± 2% error margin at the 95%
confidence level. Subnational estimates for the geographic areas covered in the survey
have the following error margins at 95% confidence level: ± 7% for Metro Manila, ±3%
for the rest of Luzon and ±5% for each of Visayas and Mindanao. Face-to-face field
interviews for this project were conducted from April 23 to 25, 2010. (Those interested
in further technical details concerning the surveys’ questionnaires and sampling design
may request Pulse Asia in writing for fuller details, including copies of the pre-tested
questions actually used.)

Pulse Asia’s pool of academic fellows takes full responsibility for the design and
conduct of the survey, as well as for analyses it makes based on the survey data. In
keeping with our academic nature, no religious, political, economic, or partisan group
influenced any of these processes. Pulse Asia undertakes pre-election surveys on its own
without any party singularly commissioning the research effort.

For any clarification or questions, kindly contact Prof. Ronald D. Holmes, Pulse
Asia President at 09189335497 / 9945602 or Dr. Ana Maria Tabunda, Pulse Asia Chief
Research Fellow at 09189436816.

 Pulse Asia’s April 2010 Pre-Election Survey:
Media Release on Filipinos’ Senatorial and Party-List Preferences
30 April 2010

Senators Ramon B. Revilla, Jr. and Jinggoy E. Estrada maintain their lead in the
senatorial race; only 37% of Filipino registered voters have a complete senatorial
line-up for the May 2010 elections

Of the 61 individuals running for senator, 18 have a statistical chance of winning

if the May 2010 elections were held during the survey period. Five of the probable
winners are from the Liberal Party (LP), three from either the Nacionalista Party (NP) or
the Pwersa ng Masang Pilipino (PMP), and two are with the Lakas-Kampi Christian
Muslim Democrats (CMD). Four political parties have one probable winner each –
Kilusang Bagong Lipunan (KBL), Nationalist People’s Coalition (NPC), Partido
Demokratiko Pilipino-Lakas ng Bayan (PDP-Laban), and People’s Reform Party (PRP) –
while one probable winner is running as an independent candidate. (See Table 1 —
Senatorial Preferences)

Two incumbent lawmakers – Senators Revilla and Estrada – continue to lead the
senatorial race with 52.8% and 50.0% of Filipino registered voters favoring their re-
election. These overall voter preferences translate to statistical rankings of 1st to 2nd
places for Senator Revilla and 1st to 3rd places for Senator Estrada. Meanwhile, Senator
Miriam P. Defensor-Santiago lands in 2nd to 3rd places with 47.9% of registered voters
supporting her re-election. Three candidates share 4th to 6th places – incumbent Senate
President Juan Ponce Enrile (40.6%), former Senate President Franklin M. Drilon
(38.4%), and Senator Pilar Juliana S. Cayetano (38.1%). Ranked 7th to 9th are former
Dangerous Drugs Board (DDB) Chairperson Vicente C. Sotto III (32.3%) and former
Senator Sergio R. Osmeña (32.2%). With 30.1% of registered voters backing his
candidacy, former National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) Director
General Ralph G. Recto lands in 9th to 10th places while Ilocos Norte Representative
Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. gets the support of 27.7% of registered voters for a statistical
ranking of 9th to 10th places. (See Table 1 — Senatorial Preferences)

Completing the list of likely winners are Bukidnon Representative Teofisto D.

Guingona III (23.0% and 11th to 15th), Senator Manuel M. Lapid (21.0% and 11th to 18th),
Akbayan Party-List Representative Ana Theresia H. Hontiveros-Baraquel (20.2% and
11th to 18th), Mr. Jose P. de Venecia III (19.6% and 11th to 19th), Atty. Gwendolyn D.
Pimentel (19.2% and 11th to 20th), former Cavite Representative Gilbert Cesar C.
Remulla (18.7% and 12th to 20th), Colonel Ariel O. Querubin (17.5% and 12th to 20th),
and Muntinlupa Representative Rozzano Rufino B. Biazon (17.3% and 12th to 20th). (See
Table 1 — Senatorial Preferences)

 Between March and April 2010, significant gains in electoral support are enjoyed
by Colonel Querubin (+7.3 percentage points) and Akbayan Party-List Representative
Hontiveros-Baraquel (+8.5 percentage points). There is also a slight improvement in the
overall voter preference of former Senator Osmeña (+4.3 percentage points) while
electoral support for Senator Cayetano declines by about the same margin (-4.6
percentage points). The other probable winners in the senatorial elections register only
marginal changes in their respective voter preferences during this period. (See Table 2 —
Comparative Senatorial Preference).
Overall, Filipino registered voters are naming a mean of seven and a median of
eight (out of a maximum of 12) of their preferred candidates for senator. With less than a
month to go before the May 2010 elections, less than half of the Filipino electorate has a
complete senatorial slate (37%) while 9.1% does not express support for any of those
running for senator. (See Table 2 — Comparative Senatorial Preference).

A small majority of registered voters (52%) now reports awareness of the party-list
system; 14 party-list groups obtain the support of at least 2% of registered voters
with a party-list preference

As the campaign for the May 2010 elections goes full-swing, more Filipino
registered voters now say they have heard or read something about the party-list system
compared to a month ago (52% versus 42%). Majorities in Metro Manila, the Visayas,
and Mindanao (55% to 57%) and Classes ABC and D (53% to 70%) know about the
party-list system. Between March and April 2010, levels of awareness of the party-list
system increase in Class D (+11 percentage points), Class ABC (+15 percentage points),
and Mindanao (+16 percentage points). Despite this improvement in public awareness,
the present national level of awareness is still lower than the April 2007 figure (59%), the
highest level of awareness recorded by Pulse Asia. (See Table 3, Comparative Awareness
of the Party-List System, 2004-2010).
Table 3
AWARENESS OF THE PARTY-LIST SYSTEM
March 2004 to April 2010 / Philippines
(In Percent)

INTRO: In this election of May 2010, Filipinos will also vote for their representatives in the Lower House.
Twenty percent [20%] of the seats in the House of Representatives are reserved for so-called
party-list representatives. The party-list system is being implemented to give smaller parties/
groups/ organizations the chance to put their representatives in Congress. Voters will choose
only one group among all those who are running under the party-list system.

Sa eleksyong Mayo 2010 ay boboto din po ang mga Pilipino para sa kanilang mga representante sa Mababang Kapulungan.
Dalawampung porsyento (20%) ng mga posisyon sa Mababang Kapulungan ay nakalaan para sa mga tinatawag na party-list representatives.
Ang sistema ng party-list ay isinasagawa upang mabigyan ng pagkakataon ang mga maliliit na partido/grupo/organisasyon na magkaroon ng
representante sa Kongreso. Ang mga botante ay pipili lamang ng isang grupo mula sa lahat ng mga tatakbo sa ilalim ng sistema ng party-list.
Q. May narinig o nabasa na po ba kayo tungkol sa sistema ng party-list o wala pa?

 Nearly eight in ten registered voters (78%) express support for a party-list group
running in the May 2010 elections – significantly higher than the March 2010 figure
(72%). Currently, 14 party-list groups succeed in winning the support of at least 2% of
registered voters with a party-list preference. In addition, based on the formula for the
allocation of party-list seats laid out in the 21 April 2009 decision of the Supreme Court1,
27 other party-list groups would win a place in the House of Representatives. Among the
probable winners in the party-list elections, only two groups would get the maximum
number of three congressional seats – Gabriela (7.32%) and Akbayan (5.36%). (See Table
4, Electoral Preference of Party-list groups and Seat Allocation).
