MANILA, Philippines — A newly released poll showed that former Sen. Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. is still leading the presidential race by a wide margin, even as his numbers declined, while Vice President Leni Robredo, his closest rival for Malacañang, surged.

 

In a survey by private pollster Pulse Asia, Marcos dropped four percentage points to 56% from 60% in February, while Robredo leaped nine percentage points from 15% to 24%.

 

The poll was conducted from March 17 to 21, capturing the presidential debates of CNN Philippines and the Commission on Elections, which Robredo attended but Marcos skipped. It was also during this time that Robredo held mammoth rallies across the country, including in Pasig City which was attended by some 130,000 people.
