Isko Moreno leads RPMD presidential survey
“Inilantad ni Mayor Isko ang kaniyang tax-cut plan sa pakikipag-pulong sa mga magsasaka sa Tarlac City noong October 21, na sakop ng survey period. Ang ibig sabihin nito ay matunog sa tao ang plano niya ‘pag siya ay naging presidente,” said Banayo.
“Ang pangunahing tema ng kampanya ni Isko Moreno at Doc Willie Ong, kasama ng kanilang mga kandidato sa Senado, ay magtrabaho para sa tao, kasama ng mga tao. Tao muna. Mabawasan ang hirap ng tao lalo na sa panahon ng pandemya at kawalan ng hanapbuhay. Buhay at Kabuhayan,” he added.
On October 15, Moreno went to Lipa, Batangas, where he got the support of the One Batangas Coalition led by Sen. Ralph Recto, who also told his countrymen that what Mayor Isko has done in Manila, he can also do nationwide.
