Villar, Erap tie at 2nd
Noynoy first at 39% in new Pulse Asia poll
MANILA, Philippines—The new Pulse Asia survey conducted 2 weeks before the May 10 polls is double whammy for Nationalista Party (NP) standard bearers Senators Manuel Villar Jr. and Loren Legarda.
In the April 23-25 survey, Villar and Legarda plunged 5 points and 3 points, respectively.
With 2 points margin of error, that means Villar lost from 3 to 7 percentage points. At 500,000 voters per statistical point, the drop is equivalent to 1.5 million to 3.5 million votes.
The numbers of Liberal Party (LP) bet Senator Benigno Aquino III and Pwersa ng Masang Pilipino (PMP) bet former President Joseph Estrada were steady. Their 2-point gains are within the margin error.
