Conducted from March 19 to 22, the survey showed that Roxas, running mate of Benigno Aquino III, led with 42 percent.

Sen. Loren Legarda, whose rating also dropped 3 points, remained a distant second with 25 percent. Legarda is the running mate of Manuel Villar.

In third place was Makati Mayor Jejomar Binay, who got 21 percent, up 4 points from 17 percent in February.

Scores for the remaining vice presidential candidates did not move substantially.

Bayani Fernando remained at 3 percent, tying with Edu Manzano, who gained a point since February.

Perfecto Yasay got 1 percent, up from 0.4 percent. Dominador Chipeco remained at 0.4 percent, and Jay Sonza fell to 0.3 percent from 1 percent.
