Despite a 6-percentage point decline in his overall voter preference during the period March to April 2010, Senator Roxas still has the lead in the vice-presidential race with 37% of registered voters supporting his candidacy. However, the 20-percentage point lead enjoyed by the latter over Senator Loren B. Legarda in March 2010 (43% versus 23%) has now been reduced to a 9-percentage point lead over Makati City Mayor Binay (37% versus 28%). Riding on a 9-percentage point gain in electoral support, the Makati City Mayor now finds himself in second place in the vice-presidential race. On the other hand, Senator Legarda, who is now ranked third, is supported by 20% of registered voters – slightly lower than her March 2010 voter preference (23%). The other vice-presidential candidates register voter preferences of at most 3% while 9% of registered voters do not have a preferred candidate for vice-president.
Across geographic areas, Senator Roxas is the leading candidate in Mindanao (38%) and the Visayas (44%). Practically the same voter preferences are recorded by Senator Roxas and Makati City Mayor Binay in Metro Manila (34% versus 38%) and the rest of Luzon (34% versus 29%). Meanwhile, a small majority of those in Class ABC (55%) favors Senator Roxas over the other vice-presidential bets while almost the same percentages of those in Class D support either Senator Roxas or Makati City Mayor Binay (36% versus 30%). Three candidates have the support of about the same percentages of those in Class E – Senator Roxas (32%), Makati City Mayor Binay (27%), and Senator Legarda (24%).
