FIVE days before the May 12 Midterm Elections, Erwin Tulfo maintains his position as the top contender for senator.
In the latest Tugon ng Masa Survey conducted by OCTA Research from April 20 to 24, Tulfo garnered 98% awareness and 52.7% voting preference, placing him at Rank 1-2. He has consistently remained at the top ranks since senatorial surveys began in 2024.
Furthermore, the lawmaker holds a double-digit lead of 10.4% in voting preference over the next closest candidate.
In addition to Tulfo, his fellow members of the Alyansa para sa Bagong Pilipinas also continue to dominate the OCTA survey, reflecting strong support for the administration-backed slate.
“I am grateful that our supporters continue to vouch for us just days before the polls. To the best of my ability, I thank all those who warmly welcome me as I go around the country,” Tulfo stated.
Despite his high numbers, Tulfo expressed a strong desire to maximize the final days of the campaign season to share his platform, saying, “I, together with my slate mates in the Alyansa, will continue to go around the country to share our united vision for the nation.”
Among the priority legislative measures Tulfo plans to file if elected to the Senate are the Barangay Officials and Workers’ Compensation Act, amendments to the Rice Tariffication Law, the OFW Pension Act, the Zero Hospital Billing for OFWs Act, among others.
Aside from the OCTA survey, Tulfo also topped the latest Senate surveys conducted by WR Numero, Pulse Asia, and Social Weather Stations—making him a formidable candidate.
