Presidential candidate VP Leni Robredo is stepping into Pres Rodrigo Duterte’s home region Davao for the first time on the campaign trail today. Her supporters are currently holding a grand rally for her at the Davao del Sur Coliseum in Digos City. #PHVote @rapplerdotcom
Robredo will then be visiting Digos City Hall and visit Bishop Guillermo Afable at the Diocese of Digos, before heading on to Tagum City for a meet and greet w/ Davao del Norte Gov Edwin Jubahib and One Davao del Norte officials. #PHVote
It’s crucial for Robredo, the opposition leader vs Duterte, to woo voters in Davao. In the 2016 VP race, she lost in this region by a huge margin. Davaoeños went for Duterte’s running mate then, Alan Peter Cayetano. In 2nd place was Ferdinand Marcos Jr, Robredo a distant 3rd.

WATCH: Speaking in Hiligaynon in his home turf Roxas City, ex-DILG chief Mar Roxas endorses his former running mate VP Leni Robredo for president, asks his kasimanwas to give their full support to Robredo. #PHVote @rapplerdotcom
Roxas recalls why he chose Robredo as running mate in 2016: It was clear to me that the person who had my full trust because she had all the qualifications, not just intellectual qualifications, but also qualifications of the heart, was no other than Leni Robredo. #PHVote
Roxas: During that time, I can sincerely say to all of you, that I was truly proud of her. You already know and are aware of her qualifications, her achievements, and possibly, in these past 45 days or beyond that, you have already heard all the presidential candidates. #PHVote

Davao del Norte D1 Rep and Partido Reporma pres Bebot Alvarez says P779.406M he had asked Sen Ping Lacson was meant for poll watchers, to help mount a credible campaign. He provides computation how he arrived at the amount. #PHVote @rapplerdotcom ImageImageImage
Alvarez: A national party, as well as candidates running for a national post, need poll watchers per polling precincts. As of 2019 data, we have roughly 389,703 polling precincts. #PHVote
Alvarez: During election day, you need two watchers, one for the morning, the other for the afternoon/evening, per precinct. Multiply 389,703 by 2, you need 779,406 watchers. #PHVote

Aika Robredo, eldest daughter of presidential bet VP Leni Robredo, also appeals to Kakampinks to stop calling supporters of other bets as “bobo” or “babayaran,” tells them there’s so much work that still needs to be done to convert the unconvinced. #PHVote @rapplerdotcom ImageImageImage
Aika Robredo: Rallies are great energizers… But just like Patty, I was also doing house to house and market runs prior to PasigLaban that I went to the rally slightly tempered down by my firsthand encounters in different communities. #PHVote
Aika Robredo: Mahalaga pa rin ang usapang tao sa tao, one on one. Maraming bahay na ang kinatok namin na ibang kandidato ang sinusuportahan. Basta bukas makinig, subukan natin. Minsan, sasalubungin ka pa ng nakangiti. #PHVote

Sobering reminder from Tricia Robredo, daughter of presidential bet VP Leni Robredo: Don’t want to be the one who spoils the party but let’s address the elephant in the room: our rallies have been the absolute best but the situation on the ground is very different. @rapplerdotcom ImageImageImageImage
Tricia Robredo: Favorite ko talaga ang market runs at house-to-house campaigns kasi ito rin ang nakasanayan namin sa lokal nung si Papa pa yung kandidato. Mas intimate at mas nakakausap mo rin ang mga tao na mababait naman in general. #PHVote
Tricia Robredo: Pero nung nagsimula kaming mag-ikot this year, may mga hostile communities talaga. Kung dati may paisa-isa lang na NR, ngayon may mga hecklers na. We encountered several when we made rounds right before #PasigLaban. #PHVote

Robredo won big here in Negros Occidental in the 2016 VP race, beating the dictator’s son Ferdinand Marcos Jr by a landslide. But the political landscape has since changed. Vice Gov Jeffrey Ferrer and 28/31 mayors are backing Marcos. #PHVote
