Vice President Jejomar Binay is still holding on to the No. 1 spot.

“Based on the latest Pulse Asia survey on presidential preferences for the 2016 presidential elections conducted from November 14 to 20, Senator Grace Poe — topnotcher in the 2013 mid-term elections for senator — surged to No. 2 behind Binay and way past Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Secretary Mar Roxas. Poe polled 18%, just 8-percentage points behind Binay and 12-percentage points ahead of Roxas,” reports RG Cruz on ANC.

The report noted: “Poe’s second place finish comes amid the Senate investigations on corruption allegations against Binay and despite Roxas’ media exposure through various advertisements in the provinces and coverage in the media over various issues.”

Binay scored 26% in November from 31% in September and 41% in June. But despite the ratings dip, though, Binay remains the top pick for president in the survey.

The report added that “as in previous Pulse Asia surveys, this nationwide survey is based on a sample of 1,200 representative adults 18 years old and above.”
