Noynoy losing support of masses, surveys show

Posted at 02/07/2010 8:59 PM | Updated as of 02/08/2010 9:43 AM

MANILA, Philippines - Senator Benigno 'Noynoy' Aquino III has been losing support from the lower-income sectors of society as Senator Manny Villar's massive marketing campaign aimed at winning the hearts of the poor pays off.

The Villar camp sent out on Sunday the results of a January 22-26, 2010 Pulse Asia survey asking respondents who they would vote for if the choice was just between Aquino and Villar.

A survey that takes out the rest of the presidential candidates makes it easier to isolate the possible reasons behind the rise and fall of their ratings.

The January 22-26 survey results show a statistical tie with 46% of respondents choosing Villar and 45% picking Aquino. The survey has a 2% plus/minus margin of error.

When respondents were asked the same question in October 22-23, or over two months after the death of former President Corazon Aquino, Aquino still had a 30 percentage-point lead over Villar (Aquino 62%; Villar 32%).

Why the big drop?

A look at the results of the January 22-26 survey shows that Aquino's support from the D households, also referred to as the "masa" (masses), fell from 60% in October 2009 to 47% in January 2010, a drop of 13 percentage points.

Aquino's support from E households, the lowest socio-economic class, fell from 66% in October 2009 to 50% January 2010, a decline of 16 percentage points.

In the Philippines, the D and E households comprise around 90% of the voting population.

Even among the upper-income households (ABC), support for Aquino dropped from 67% in October 2009 to 52% in January 2010, a decline of 15 percentage points.

Cory magic fades

On the other hand, Villar's pro-poor marketing campaign is working like magic as the so-called Cory magic wears off on Aquino. (Read: 'Cory Magic' wearing off on Noynoy?)

From October 2009 to January 2010, Villar gained 10 percentage points among the D households (from 34% to 44%), and 20 percentage points among E households (from 30% to 50%).

Support for Villar from the upper-income households (ABC) also went up from 22% in October 2009 to 37% in January 2010, an increase of 15 percentage points.

Villar has been outspending his rivals in political ads by a ratio around 7 to 1. He spent over P500 million in the last three months of 2009, making him the only presidential candidate in the top 20 advertisers during that period. The rest were the usual big multinational companies that advertize heavily such as Unilever and Procter & Gamble. (Read: Print still losing ground to TV, radio)

Celebrities such as older-generation comedy king Dolphy Quizon and young-generation comedy star Michael V have endorsed Villar. Filipino boxing champion and hero Manny Pacquiao is also backing Villar. The latest celebrity to endorse Villar is singer Sarah Geronimo.

The real estate property tycoon also has segments in noontime shows Eat Bulaga and Wowowee where hosts give out cash and prizes courtesy of Villar.

It remains to be seen, however, whether the C-5 scandal and his ethics case in the Senate will have an impact in the February 2010 surveys. The January 22-26 results failed to capture the impact of that news. -- Isagani de Castro Jr., abs-cbnNEWS.com/Newsbreak

noynoy satans candidate?

Why Aquino Top Survey?
1. Aquino have two close cousins and friends the owner and manager of SWS and pulse Asia
2. Aquino already sacrifice to donate One Kingdom Church for INC 2nd biggest central office in Hacienda Luisita site and also one big central office for Quiboloy in Davao City.
3. Aquino have the secret backing of Gloria Arroyo because majority of his relatives and friends are having big positions on Malacanang and also other government agencies
4. Aquino touched every Filipino because of the recently emotional and empathy burial of his mother. But at the end of the day miracle would reveal that he fooled peoples conscience through enumeration 1-3.


Sa PARAISO ni VILLAR, MARAMI NA SILA!

Ano ba talaga?

Bakit tayong mga Pilipino pag ang kandidato may ginagastos sasabihin natin nakakaalarma ang sobra sobrang gastos. Pag ang kandidato walang ginagastos sasabihin natin nakaka alarma rin at mahirap walang pang gastos. Ano ba talaga? Pag ang kandidato namigay ng pera sasabihin ng mga malilinis idisqualify at nag bribe.Pag ang mga botante lumapit sa kandidato walang ibigay sasabihin ng mga tao " Hwag nating iboto mahirap walang pera". Walang mapag lagyan ang mga kandidato sainyo.

You think were stupid?

Promises just to get our votes. What are the guarantee that you will keep your promise? Nothing. Once you're a president, you will forget about this. Farmers will have a rally again, after a few hours of the rally, their empty stomach becomes restless and do something stupid. The police have to kill a few farmers again.


correction po: he did not have it in the first place.

typo error lang po. patawad.


here did not have it in the first place

noynoy's base of support is strongest in the top 30% richest Filipinos (those earning average of P156k per year according to the 2006 Family Income and Expenditure Survey).pero some of the AB ay kay villar rin kasi ayaw nila kay noynoy because of his lack of experience. konti lang ang suporta ni noynoy mula sa masa CDE (those earning P81k per year 2006 FIES). karamihan pa naman sa mga top 30% richest ay tamad bumoto habang masipag bumoto ang mga mahihirap. hindi nakatulong kay noynoy ang pag-atras ni chiz sa laban kasi karamihan ng para sana kay chiz ay kay villar pumunta. nakakatulong kay noynoy ang patuloy na pagtakbo ni erap kasi kahit paano ang mababawasan ang masa votes ni villar dahil meron pa rin talagang mga masa na loyal kay erap. estimate ko ay 40 to 45 million ang boboto at out of that ay mga about 13M ang kay villar at 11M ang kay noynoy habang tig 5M to 7M sina erap at gibo, habang 3M to 5M sina gordon at bro eddie. siempre kulelat sina jc at perlas. PAALALA LANG PO NA BANTAYAN NANG MABUTI ANG CANVASSING SA MGA MUNISIPYO, CITY HALL AT KAPITOLYO KASI DOON DATI GINAGAWA ANG DAGDAG-BAWAS AT IBA PANG PANDARAYA. REMEMBER HELLO GARCI. NEVER FORGET HELLO GARCI.


kabutihan ng bansa

Ang dami na nating nadaanan sa buhay, history ng ating bansa...from marcos...nag unite na tayo para maiahon at maging malaya...At the time of Cory, ilang coup ang nag wasak sa ating bansa dahil sa mga taong ang sarili lang ang iniisip..FVR maraming issues ang binitawan at tayong nagwatak watak ulit...Ng time ni Estrada, mostly and bumoto ang mahihirap dahil sia daw ay sa mahirap pero ano ang nangyari..lalo tayong humirap ...people nag isa ulit para iahon ang pilipinas sa tingin natin magaling at isang economista si GMA... Tingnan niyo ngayon ang pilipinas, ano tau ngayon...d pa ba tayo natuto...Sana naman isipin na lang natin ang kapakanan at kabutihan ng ating bansa..maraming magagaling na lider dyan ...if you think that noynoy, villar, gibo, dick, bro eddie is the best leader ng ating bansa...go and fight for them but always remember that our decisions are for the good of our country and not for yourself only...(dahil nakatulong sayo eh makakatulong na sa lahat)..

Basta sa akin...pinag dasal ko muna ang bubutuhin ko dahil para ito sa bansang mahal ko at hindi lang sa sarili ko. Ill just fight for my candidate which i know will help the country as a whole.


anu na ba ang nagawa ni noy?

Para sa mga nagtatanong ng mga accomplishments ni Noynoy... eto na po:

SELECTED HOUSE BILLS AND RESOLUTIONS

House Bill No. 4251 – granting annual productivity incentives to all workers in the private sector
House Bill No. 4397 – strengthening the regulatory power of the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) to effectively enforce consumer laws
House Bill No. 4252 – increasing the penalties for non-compliance of the prescribed increases and adjustments in the wage rates of workers
House Bill No. 3616 – extending the reglementary period for the educational qualification for PNP members
House Bill No. 1842 – providing for the codification of criminal laws
House Resolution No. 65 – inquiry in aid of legislation into the policies and processes of the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) in granting rate increases to electric utilities
House Resolution No. 788 – creating a select Congressional Oversight Committee on intelligence funds to check and study the use of intelligence funds by government agencies to ensure that funds allocated therefor are utilized for the purpose they are intended

RE: ACCOMPLISHMENT NI NOYNOY

Si Miriam Santiago, 754 bills in the same period as Noynoy. Ano ba yan, mas maraming nakikitang problema si Miriam kesa kay Noynoy. Someone also posted that Trillanes himself, the jailed senator has filed 117+ bills! Que horror!

Yung accomplishments na hinahanap natin ay yung may resulta. Hindi yung naka-file lang. What about nung Senator na siya? Ano-ano ang mga projects na nilaanan niya ng pork barrel niya? Does anybody have any idea kung saan dinadala ni Noynoy ang pork barrel niya?

nirepost q lng :0

sa presidenteng walang nagawa tayo aasa.

Hacienda Luisita in 2014?

5

History is repeating itself on this one. Cory was once asked about this while campaigning opposite Marcos back in the 80's. Ang sagot ni Cory, "Yes". Pero naibigay ba? Hinde.

If sincere talaga sila na ibibigay sa magsasaka ang pinangakong lupa sa Hacienda Luisita, NUON PA DAPAT IBINIGAY.

Noynoy, competent? Nakakatawa naman. Kung yung sariling niyang kampo nagkakagulo ngayon dahil hindi niya ma-manage ng tama, yan ba ang taong competent? Hinayaan nilang makahabol si Villar sa ratings kahit na alam nila na consistent ang pagtaas nito since last year, yan ba ang taong competent? Kung kelan naabutan na siya saka sila nagkakandarapa ng pag-iisip ng paraan para lalong marinig ng maraming tao si kalbo.

To sum it up, pangako lang na hindi matutupad ang 2014 nila. It happened before, it will DEFINITELY happen again. Competence? Ang taong competent, aaksyon agad bago pumutok ang problema sa mukha nila. Clearly Noynoy is just full of promises which he can't keep and a very very INCOMPETENT person.
