Senate Staff Chose New Set of Senators
A total of 591 senate staff members participated in an internal mock polls this week to determine the top 12 preferred senatorial candidates for the May 10 elections.
Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile of the Partido ng Masang Pilipino topped the mock elections. He was closely followed by former senator Sergio Osmena and Sen. Jinggoy Estrada. In the top 12 with Enrile, Osmena and Estrada are Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos, Ralph Recto, Miriam Defensor Santiago, Adel Tamano, Gwen Pimentel, Riza Hontiveros-Baraquel, Franklin Drilon, Rufino “Ruffy” Biazon, and Francisco “Kit” Tatad. It is notable that five of those who made it it to the list are “first time” senators, the rest are either reelectionists or returning senators. It is the first time for Tamano and Pimentel to seek elective posts.
Tamano was elated by his inclusion in the top twelve. He welcomed the openness of the senate staff to new blood and fresh perspective in the task of law making. “I hold the results in high regard. These are the people who work very closely with the senators and they know exactly what kind of candidate will make a good senator. I thank them for showing this confidence to us young politicians,” Tamano said.
A group composed of Susan Ople, Pia Cayetano, Danny Lim, Ariel Querubin, Gilbert Remulla, TG Guingona, Bong Revilla and Liza Masa completes the top twenty.
