There is a crowded field of presidential candidates for the May 2022 election. With several heavyweights with national appeal contending, much can change in the next few months.
Our best guess is that Ferdinand Marcos Jr is likely to win in May. He is leading the polls and his most formidable rival, Sara Duterte, is his running mate.
If it comes about, Marcos’s victory will be controversial as memories of his father’s dictatorial rule and corruption are still strong.
