Analyst: 2022 polls exciting with younger bets

“Masaya. Marami sila. Maganda d'yan, except for Panfilo Lacson, mga bata 'yan. They are in their 40s or late 30s. I like that because that means they are more likely to be open minded, hindi mga bigots, hindi tulad namin na calcified na aming minds,” said University of the Philippines professor Clarita Carlos.

On Wednesday, Manila Mayor Isko Moreno launched his presidential bid for the 2022 national elections. He is expected to go up against senators Panfilo Lacson and Manny Pacquiao, who earlier announced their plan to run for President in next year’s poll. “Sa aking siguro what caught on to me would be the fact na local executive siya. Usually, more likely, when they are good and competent as local executives nama-migrate 'yun to a much bigger territory like national. Siguro maganda 'yung local executives sila imbes na 'yung somebody na hinugot mo sa kawayan na hindi man siya na-appoint na taga-habol ng aso. Dog catcher baga,” she said.

Carlos hopes that Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio would soon join the young candidates in their bid for presidency. Duterte-Carpio earlier said she would no longer run for president in 2022 after her father, incumbent President Rodrigo Duterte, accepted his party’s nomination for vice president.

“Early days yet. Isho-shoot down nila 'yung filling ni presidente because it's clearly violative of the constitutional requirement na isang term lang ang presidente. Eh kung mamatay 'yung presidente at siya 'yung vice president eh di bina-violate mo na 'yun,” Carlos said.In case the issue is brought before the Supreme Court, Carlos said that the High Court would more likely rule in favor of Duterte not running for vice president.

Opinion ko lang po It's too early for him! It's just a waste of resources and possible additional votes for Leni. He could've tried senatorial seat first.
