PRESIDENT Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. on Thursday announced the administration’s senatorial slate for the 2025 midterm elections during the Alyansa Para Sa Bagong Pilipinas Convention at the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC) in Pasay City.
The slate includes:
Interior Secretary Benhur Abalos
Makati City Mayor Abby Binay
Senator Pia Cayetano
Senator Lito Lapid
Senator Francis Tolentino
Senator Imee Marcos
Senator Ramon “Bong” Revilla Jr.
Former Senator Manny Pacquiao
Former Senator Panfilo Lacson
Former Senator Vicente Sotto III
Deputy Speaker Camille Villar
Former Social Welfare and Development Secretary Erwin Tulfo
All personalities on the slate, except for Senator Imee Marcos, were present at the event.
The Alyansa Para Sa Bagong Pilipinas Convention, where President Marcos Jr. announced his administration’s senatorial slate for the 2025 midterm elections, was actually a gathering that took place earlier in the year, on June 29, 2024.
This convention was not the event where the senatorial slate was announced, but rather a ceremony where the Partido Federal ng Pilipinas (PFP) and the National Unity Party (NUP) formalized their alliance under the banner of “Alyansa Para Sa Bagong Pilipinas.”
Overall, the “Alyansa Para Sa Bagong Pilipinas” alliance has the potential to significantly impact the 2025 midterm elections. It remains to be seen how effectively the coalition can manage internal differences, engage voters, and translate their combined strength into electoral success.
