VICE President Sara Duterte and Sen. Bong Go have emerged as the early front-runners for the 2028 presidential and vice presidential races, respectively, according to the latest noncommissioned survey by research firm Tangere.
The mobile-based poll, conducted from June 20 to 22, showed Vice President Duterte leading the presidential race with 35-percent voter preference — a six-point jump from the previous month — driven largely by support from the Davao and Northern Mindanao regions. Former vice president Leni Robredo followed with 19 percent, buoyed by voters in Metro Manila, Calabarzon (Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal and Quezon) and the Bicol Region.
On the vice presidential front, Go garnered 38 percent support, up by two points, while incoming Sen. Bam Aquino placed second with 22 percent. The survey revealed strong pairing preferences: 90 percent of Duterte’s supporters also chose Go as their preferred vice president, while 8 to 9 out of 10 Robredo supporters selected Aquino.The survey also explored a hypothetical scenario in which President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. endorses Robredo for president. Under this condition, Robredo could close the gap and post a statistical tie with Duterte — and even lead by 2 percentage points.
