Abstract
This paper will explore the political terrain leading to the 2010
presidential election. It seeks to understand the nature of presidential
campaigns in post-authoritarian Philippines. Utilizing survey data,
it will trace trends that reflect continuity and change in Filipino
voting behavior. Moreover, it will apply the analytical tools of political
marketing, such as market segmentation and candidate positioning,
in identifying the key elements that contributed to a successful
presidential campaign in the three most recent electoral cycles.
The paper notes that electoral campaigns in the post-authoritarian
period have been waged with competing narratives of reformism,
populism and clientelism. The tradition of Filipino-style reformist
politics has been revived in the issue-based anti-corruption and good
governance campaigns. Meanwhile, continued clientelism and money
politics have manifested themselves in the machine-based campaigns
that have eroded the gains of reformism. The failure of reform
politics to address the problem of poverty, coupled by the ascendancy
of the mass media, has fueled the image-based populist campaigns.
Ultimately, the rise of media and public opinion polling as influential
conduits between national candidates and the electorate underscores
the need to find the right mix and astute use of image, issues and
machinery.

1946 to 1965. He utilized three main independent variables in explaining partisan voting: party

fund for the Rebel Returnee Program were distributed to local officials
supportive of the Ramos campaign (Balgos, 1998).
Ramos, a protestant and only the second non-Catholic to seek
the presidency, secured the endorsement of two tightly-knit religious
organizations the El Shaddai of Brother Mike Velarde and Jesus is
Lord of Brother Eddie Villanueva. In terms of regional strength, he
got the bulk of his support from the countrys most heavily populated
regions: Central Luzon and the Cebuano-speaking areas of the Visayas
and Mindanao. In addition, he was exceptionally strong in two
provinces with very large populations, Pangasinan and Cebu (Lande,
1996) (see Appendix 1).
Santiago did not have a political machinery to support her
candidacy. Her Peoples Reform Party had no congressional or local
candidates and it had only a partial senatorial slate, which included
five retired generals. It was only in the latter part of the campaign
that she was able to convince Ramon Magsaysay Jr. to be her vicepresidential running-mate. What she lacked in traditional political
machinery, she made up for with a non-traditional campaign powered
largely by unpaid volunteers, made up of students and civic leaders
(Lande, 1996).
Santiago won in two of the countrys most densely populated
regions: the National Capital Region and its surrounding semiurban provinces, and Western Visayas, particularly vote-rich Negros
Occidental and Iloilo (Lande, 1996). While she topped most media and
campus surveys, the SWS surveys from July 1991 to early February
1992 had her running second to Ramos. By April 1992, she was able
to overtake Ramos, but her lead was not statistically significant
(Mangahas, 1994).
Keys to success
In 1992, Ramos consistently topped the surveys, articulated the
proper issue (peoples empowerment) consistent with his image
as one of the EDSA heroes, and had government resources at his

the national vote.
Populist onslaught
Estradas popularity was formidable; his support from the masa
was solid. His popularity compensated for the relative handicap of
his LAMMP coalition vis--vis the administration Lakas party. Estrada
dominated the SWS surveys throughout the campaign period. From
January to May 1998, he did not relinquish the top position in the
opinion polls (see Table 6). Although rejected by a small but significant
ABC or middle-to-upper classes, Estrada nevertheless won as a result
of mass support from the D and E classes the so-called masa vote.
The 1998 election was the first time that the masa came out solidly
behind a single candidate. Estrada captured 38 percent of the class D
and 48 percent of the class E votes (Mangahas, 1998).
The Estrada campaign will be remembered for one of the most
successful campaign slogans in the history of Philippine presidential
campaigns Erap para sa mahirap (Erap for the poor). The slogan did
not only capture the core message and issue of the Estrada campaign,
it was also in synch with his image as an idol of the masses. He won
the endorsement of the Iglesia ni Cristo, and SWS exit polls indicated
that 81 percent of INC members voted solidly for him. Estada was
also endorsed by El Shaddai; however, only 39 percent of its members
actually voted for him (Mangahas, 1998) (see Appendix 4).
Estrada was subjected to a barrage of negative attacks revolving
around his character and competence. His opponents raised the issue
of morality, particularly regarding his mistresses, his drinking sprees
and gambling habit. His lack of advanced education was also used to
cast doubt on his competence. While these allegations had some basis
in fact, his popularity did not wane. His media strategists even used the
Erap jokes that were circulating to further endear him to the masses.

which was consistent with his image, and his machinery that was largely
provided by the LDP and NPC. He managed to secure his frontrunner
position throughout the campaign, which projected invincibility and
resulted in a bandwagon effect. De Venecia had the advantage of
having a well-financed party machinery in the form of the monolithic
administration party Lakas NUCD-UMDP, and the endorsement of
President Ramos which translated into access to government resources.
However, like Mitra in 1992, he was very unpopular and suffered from a
negative trapo image.

two for the senate and one for vice president. She got the highest
number of votes on her second run for the senate in 1995, and when
she won the vice presidency in 1998. Aside from Pampanga, she also
counted Bacolod, Negros Occidental (her husbands province) and
Iligan, Lanao del Norte (her mothers province) as her bailiwicks. In
successive SWS surveys, she consistently scored high in the Visayas,
where she outranked Fernando Poe Jr. She eventually consolidated
her ethno-linguistic base (i.e. Cebuano and Ilonggo) in the Visayas
and Mindanao to counter Poes dominance in Luzon (see Appendix
6).
In terms of presidential preference, Arroyo consistently trailed
behind other candidates. Before her October 2003 announcement
that she would seek election, she consistently trailed behind Senators
Noli de Castro and Raul Roco, except in June of the same year when
she placed first with 20 percentage points in the SWS survey. Her
numbers did not pick up after her October announcement. It was only
in January 2004 that she overtook Roco with 27 percentage points,
and placed second to Fernando Poe Jr. She benefited largely from
the decision of survey frontrunner Noli de Castro to withdraw and
become her vice-presidential candidate. By February 2004, she had
become competitive, rising two percentage points and narrowing her
margin with Poe in the SWS survey (see Table 8).

consolidated her hold on the ABC class and made inroads in the D class
(see Table 9 and Appendix 8).

Populism falters
After 282 movies and 48 years as the undisputed box-office king
of Philippine cinema, Fernando Poe Jr. (popularly known as FPJ)
performed the greatest role of his life by running for the presidency
and following in the footsteps of his best friend, Joseph Estrada.
His candidacy was borne out of the efforts of several sectoral and
140
volunteer groups that urged him to run. His main political vehicle was
the hastily-formed coalition the Koalisyon ng Nagkakaisang Pilipino
(KNP) composed of the LDP, Partido Demokratikong Pilipino-Lakas
ng Bayan (PDP-Laban), and the Pwersa ng Masang Pilipino (PMP).
FPJs electoral strength was both regional and class-based. In
Luzon, FPJ relied on his home province of Pangasinan as his major
bailiwick. He was also particularly strong in Mindanao where he had
a strong following among the Muslim communities. His campaign
hoped to capture the class D and E votes that delivered the presidency
to Estrada in 1998. FPJs survey numbers surged initially despite his
late declaration to run for the presidency. However, a series of negative
news stories about him, including a disqualification case filed at the
Supreme Court, succeeded in halting his upward momentum. Moreover,
FPJs refusal to articulate his platform or participate in debates fatally
impaired his candidacy. His public appearances were limited to smiling,
waving and saluting to the crowd, and his speeches were limited to oneliners, which were often taken from his movies.
Despite the huge number of fans who attended his campaign
sorties, the failure of FPJ to mount an insurmountable lead in the
presidential surveys prevented most local politicians from endorsing
his candidacy and discouraged political financiers from infusing funds
into his campaign. In the end, he lost his hold on his core demographic
base the class D and E votes. Ironically, he captured the youth vote,
but majority of the older voters supported Arroyo (see Appendix 9).
His campaign was also saddled by internal bickering among the
parties and organizations within the opposition coalition. His failure
to unite with recalcitrant opposition candidate Panfilo Lacson further
weakened the political opposition, weighed down his campaign
message of national unity and resulted in the withdrawal of support
of the influential Iglesia ni Cristo. In the end, the opposition failed to
provide the political vehicle for the charismatic Poe.

Arroyos victory was also the first time in Philippine history that
a presidential candidate won the election by winning the southern
islands of Visayas and Mindanao but losing in the traditional locus of
political power the northern island of Luzon. Despite the fact that
Luzon was Arroyos natural bailiwick, majority of its voters indicated
their preference for Poe in successive surveys conducted by SWS and
Pulse Asia prior to the election. Given her political weakness in Luzon,
she relied on the political clans and bosses in the Visayas and Mindanao
to deliver the votes for her (De Castro, 2004). The administration also
succeeded in getting the support of seven out of ten governors in voterich provinces (Go, 2004).
The Presidents candidacy was reinforced by the religious command
votes that were delivered by the Iglesia ni Cristo and El Shaddai (see
Appendix 7). According to estimates, each religious group can deliver
between two to four million votes. In 1998, Erap Estrada got the
endorsement of the Iglesia ni Cristo and El Shaddai. The 1998 SWS
exit polls indicated that 81 percent of INC members voted solidly for

Revival of reformism
At the outset, it became apparent that the 2010 electoral battle was
going to be waged in terms of an expensive media war and a pitched
battle for the mobilization of local political machineries. However, the
massive outpouring of national grief over the death of former President
and democracy icon Corazon C. Aquino on August 1, 2009 reawakened
a sense of collective nostalgia for the democratic struggle against
the Marcos dictatorship. Similar to the events of 1983 after Senator
Benigno Ninoy Aquino Jr. was assassinated, thousands representing
a cross-section of Philippine society from street vendors to middleaged professionals and their children literally lined up in the streets of
Manila to pay their last respects to the former president. The tremendous
national grief, coupled with deep frustration over the scandal-ridden
Arroyo administration, rekindled the flames of reformist aspirations.
Suddenly, national attention shifted to Aquinos son, Senator
Benigno Noynoy Aquino III, as the bearer of the reformist struggle.
In a repeat of his mothers path to the presidency, several individuals
and private organizations launched a signature drive urging the young
Aquino to consider running for president under the Liberal Party in 2010.
Recognizing the signs of the times, Mar Roxas graciously withdrew
his presidential candidacy in favor of Aquino. His act similar to the
withdrawal of Salvador Doy Laurel in favor of Cory Aquino further
reinforced the historical parallelisms with the 1986 campaign for the
snap presidential election. A special SWS survey covering the voterich Lingayen-Lucena corridor was commissioned in September 2009
to test the potentials of a Noynoy candidacy. The poll was taken a day
after Roxas withdrawal but weeks before Aquinos declaration that he
would seek the presidency (see Table 11).

Keys to Success
Some political analysts and opinion columnists have described the
surge in the surveys of Noynoy Aquino as a game changer. With the
rise in his numbers in the surveys, it is apparent that the core reformist
issues such as transparency, accountability and good governance have
gained ground as the central issues of the 2010 election. As political
analyst Amando Doronila (2009) observed, the survey results reflect the
deep and broad resonance of the issue of clean and honest governance
