SENATOR Bam Aquino emerged as the most favored senator for the first quarter of Publicus Asia’s “Pahayag” survey.
Aquino also topped Publicus Asia’s Pahayag 2025 End-of-Year (PEOY-2025) survey, but maintained his strong standing among respondents, with a 59 percent net favorable rating, including 30 percent who viewed him as “very favorable.”
Aquino’s latest rating was significantly higher than the 54 percent net favorable rating he obtained in the PEOY-2025 survey.
Aside from Aquino, his fellow majority members like Senators Francis “Kiko” Pangilinan and Risa Hontiveros, placed second and third, respectively. Both came out with identical 50 percent ratings, while Senators Rodante Marcoleta, Bong Go, Raffy Tulfo, Ping Lacson, Robin Padilla, Alan Peter Cayetano, and Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa rounded out the Top 10.
The PAHAYAG first quarter nationwide, independent, non-commissioned survey, which used purposive sampling, was conducted from March 21 to 24 among 1,509 registered voters.
The respondents were randomly selected from the market research panel of PureSpectrum, a US-based panel marketplace with global operations and a regional office in Singapore.
Publicus Asia was the only survey company to correctly predict that Go and Aquino would finish first and second, respectively, in the 2025 senatorial elections.
