The new government may have been installed but, for majority of Filipinos, not by a credible election.
According to the latest IBON survey results, 53.18% of Filipinos believe that the electoral canvassing conducted by Congress was not credible. Of the 1,681 respondents, only 26.95% said it was credible.
Asked who they think won the May 10 elections, 43.43% said it was Fernando Poe Jr., while 36.47% answered Pres. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo. Those uncertain comprised 13.03 percent.
Asked who they voted for in the last elections, 32.66% answered they voted for Poe, closely followed by Arroyo (31.05%).
However, even those who voted for Arroyo do not believe that the polls were credible. Of the 31.05% who voted for Arroyo, 19.45% think that the results of the elections are questionable.
The July IBON Survey was conducted last June 30 to July 9 to find out the people’s perception on the economy, their income and livelihood, government’s performance and other pressing issues.
The July IBON Survey has a margin of error of plus or minus two percent.
